Ant Control Wesley ChapelOne of the most difficult pests, as well as the most common, is the ant. In search of food or moisture, ants can get into your home through the smallest cracks. Workers are ants that forage in your office or home looking for food. Workers who find food can share their information with other worker bees by leaving chemical trails along the substrate when they return to their nest. This trail, which can't be detected by humans, sticks to the substrate for long periods and aids other ants in finding the food at the end.
Wesley Chapel Pest Control Pros has the right tools and training to offer the best ant treatment and control. Carpenter AntsCarpenter ants normally build their colonies outside in areas abundant in wood. This could include unused firewood, fences, tree stumps, and other wooded structures no always used. All ant colonies have a queen, her eggs, and the young carpenter ants. This means that they will need more space for their ever growing colony. They will build secondary nests for worker ants, and the larvae. However, this could take several years before the ants begin to build secondary nests.
Ants normally create a colony within weak wood or near mold. Ants look for these areas specifically because it makes it easier to build the colony, but that doesn’t mean that they won’t go after dry wood either. Carpenter ants will find any little opening to make a refuge of your home; windows, cracks around doors, plumbing or electrical openings in a home. Carpenter ants could also utilize trees nearby your home to invade. All they need is a small opening, and they are in. IDENTIFYING CARPENTER ANTS Most ants come in colors of red, brown, or black. Some ants have wings, and will usually come out in August. Sometimes ants will be a solid color or even contain all three colors. They come in all different sizes between a half-inch long and five-eighths of an inch. |
