These pests are one of the most common problems plaguing Connecticut homeowners and can be difficult to get rid of. As they live in colonies of hundreds or thousands, our Fox Pest Control technicians know that any ant spotting could be sign of an infestation. Read below to find out if you have an infestation, and what you can do about it. If you have large black or brown ants in or around your home, you may have a carpenter ant problem. If that is the case, our carpenter ant page is a great place to start. Signs of an Ant Infestation You might already know for sure that you have an ant problem. But here are a couple of the most common signs of an ant infestation in Connecticut. Large Mounds in the Yard They can be in dirt or sand, or they can be covered in growing, healthy grass. Ant Trails Ants will travel long distances for food. Ant trails may disappear after the food source is gone. Piles of ants In grass, sand, or even cracks in brick or cement What You Need to Know About Ants Ants come in a large variety. In Connecticut, the most common kinds of ants you’ll see around your home are: Sweet ants Ghost ants Odorous house ants Carpenter ants Ants find their way in through any open, unsealed space. This includes cracks in the wood and gaps in the window or old weather stripping. Once inside, they hunt for food and moisture. That’s why you’ll see them most often in your kitchen and bathroom. While most of these ants are harmless, carpenter ant infestations can pose a serious threat to your Connecticut property, because they tunnel their way through wood, causing damage to your home. Ant Behavior is a fascinating, complicated subject. They are social creatures that work together to gather food and care for their young. There are several kinds of ants in each colony. Queens have wings that allow them to fly and start a new colony. Once there they rip off their wings and mate, and begin raising their first working ants. They spend the rest of their lives laying eggs to build the colony. Workers are females who are wingless and do not reproduce. Their job is to build the nest, gather food and take care of the young. Males have wings that allow them to find a queen to mate with. They mate and die, doing very little work in their lives. If a colony lives in your home they can be quite disruptive and should be exterminated quickly. Helpful Ant Prevention Tips Move wood or low-hanging tree branches away from your house. Seal cracks to prevent intrusion. Clean baseboards, cabinets, and countertops regularly. How Do I Get Rid Of Ants? Call Us Think you have a ant problem?
