Carpenter Ant Control FAQs

2. How can I recognize carpenter ants?

Carpenter ants are generally larger than many common household ants, but professional identification is recommended.

3. Do carpenter ants eat wood?

No. Carpenter ants excavate wood to create nesting galleries rather than consuming it as food.

4. What signs may indicate a carpenter ant nest?

Possible signs include large ants, recurring trails, winged ants and sawdust-like material near wood.

5. Does moisture attract carpenter ants?

Damp or moisture-damaged wood may provide favourable nesting conditions for carpenter ants.

6. Where do carpenter ants commonly nest?

They may nest around window frames, rooflines, wall voids, decks, damp structural wood, trees or stumps.

7. Are winged carpenter ants a concern?

Winged ants indoors may indicate a mature colony within or near the building and should be evaluated.

8. Will replacing damaged wood eliminate the colony?

Replacing wood may address damage, but it may not eliminate ants occupying another nearby nesting area.

Repair moisture problems, replace damaged wood, trim vegetation away from the building and address practical entry gaps.
