General Ant Information

carpenter ants exterminator Whitby

Ants are pests and, therefore, are counted to be among one of the most invasive species that can be found in Canadian homes. Ants are known to be part of incredible vast colonies where each ant is responsible for a specific task for the greater good of the colony. Depending on the species, colonies might house one single or multiple queens at the same time, splitting into colonies. This stubborn insect lets nothing get into its way, and because of their strong determination and cohesiveness they are always successful in invading most residential and commercial properties with little effort.

Types of Ants

Among the most common species, these are the most common species our technicians encounter across all areas we service are the Carpenter Ant, Imported Odorous Ant, Pavement Ant, and the Imported Fire Ant. What makes the carpenter ants unique is that they are often mistaken for termites. This is because they both damage the integrity of wood in and around the property. 

Carpenter ants, contrary to popular belief, do not eat the wood, but, in fact, tunnel intricate galleries, thereby damaging the structural integrity of the property as time passes. Carpenter ant damage can be recognized by finding, what is known as ‘frass’. Frass resembles fine wood dust and can be found directly under an entry-point that the carpenter ants carved out. Carpenter ants,  typically, prefer damp wood, but their satellite colony often sets out for the drier parts of the home. Once in a while when you are dealing with a full-blown infestation, you might see carpenter ants exploring and scavenging for food outside of the colony.

Odorous Ants owe their name to the fact when stepped on, they release a smell that is quite rotten. They measure about 1.5mm to 3mm in length. They prefer sweet foods and feed on dead insects as well. They are either black or brown. Outdoors they build their nests under debris, stones, logs, or even use soil. Their population can expand to 100,000 in a single colony. 

Red imported fire ants are infamous for their painful sting and keep most invaders at bay through their sting. These ants usually come in a dark red or a brown-shaded color and measure about 3 to 9mm in length. Most fire ants are found outdoors, but there are some exceptions to it as some forage for food indoors.

Pavement ants measure around 3mm in length and can be dark brown to black. Pavement ant colonies can have a population of 3000-4000 ants. There are several queens in a colony. The areas beneath slabs of pavements are a preference. Their diet consists of insects, seeds, honeydew, and honey. Indoors can feed on whatever is available, such as nuts, cheeses. and meats.

Dangers of Ant Infestations

While most species pose no threat, there is the red imported fire ant that can cause some painful stings. They are known to cause allergic reactions. These and other ant species are not able to carry any serious disease. However, their presence is a nuisance that you want to have removed and dealt with as soon as possible.
