Carpenter Ant Control

Effective Strategies for Managing Carpenter Ant Infestations

Why are Carpenter Ants a Problem?

Carpenter ants pose a significant problem as they can cause structural damage to homes. Unlike termites, carpenter ants do not eat wood but excavate it to create their nests, which can weaken the integrity of wooden structures over time. Their presence often indicates moisture problems in a home, which can lead to additional issues if not addressed.

Carpenter Ant Facts

  • Carpenter ants are large ants that can be black, red, or a combination thereof.
  • They prefer moist, decaying wood to establish their colonies but can move to drier wood as the colony expands.
  • Carpenter ants are most active at night, which can make them difficult to detect.
