Carpenter ant

Carpenter ants got their name because of their habit of making nests and digging cavities in wood. This habit of nesting in wood sometimes causes structural damage to a building. Carpenter ants do not eat wood, they tear off small pieces to enlarge the necessary space for the development of the colony. This is why we sometimes find sawdust piling on the floor, a shelve or in a cobweb. Carpenter ants often offer a big challenge in controlling them, especially when one or more nests are in the structure of a house or building.
