Carpenter Ants

Carpenter ants may establish colonies in wood dwellings and cause structural damage, or they can be a pest by foraging in the house. They are capable of inflicting painful bites when handled. Normally carpenter ants are more noticeable when homes are located near large trees or near forests.

Winged sexual forms swarm in late spring to early summer and establish new colonies. The entire life cycle usually requires about 65 days from egg to adult, but this varies with weather conditions.
