Monthly Pest Carpenter Ants

Carpenter ant identification

Most ants are small and nest underground, only rarely becoming anything more than a nuisance. Carpenter ants (see photo top), on the other hand, are large ants that nest above ground in cavities such as tree stumps and sometimes in the walls, subfloors or roofs of our houses where they can cause extensive and expensive damage.

 Carpenter ants are generally larger than 3/8" and all black or red and black. Winged ants may be present in late spring but like other ants, most of the year carpenter ants are wingless
How do carpenter ant colonies start? Carpenter ant colonies are started by a queen (above, left). Mated queens generally fly during late spring and locate a suitable cavity in which to begin laying eggs. She can use almost any protected cavity such as inside a wall, under floor insulation or outside in a tree stump. The cavity is not always associated with wood since, unlike termites, carpenter ants do not necessarily need wood for survival. As an example, rigid foam insulation is frequently nested in and damaged by these ants.
In the eastern US ant damage is often associated with moisture because colonies tend to start where wood has been moisture-damaged but this is not necessarily the case in the western US where colonies and damage can occur in very dry situations.
How do carpenter ant colonies grow?Once the first brood of female worker ants is produced the queen stays within the nest and worker ants leave the nest daily to forage for food and water. Carpenter ants are opportunistic predators and scavengers taking a wide variety of foods. This behavior of moving between nest and foraging grounds, combined with their large size, makes thee ants relatively easy to detect during routine inspections. You'll see ants "trailing", moving more or less in line, between the structure and outdoors.As the colony grows worker ants excavate and enlarge the original cavity. It is this "colony expansion" activity that causes damage to building materials. Colonies can continue to grow over many years and may split into several "satellite colonies" when the original colony grows too large
