Ant and buddy

Description:

Carpenter ants eat living and dead insects, honeydew from aphids, sweets, meat, and fats, but they will readily forage for water and food scraps within the house. They also eat CELLULOSE ( a material that is important in making paper and cloth) which is made from wood and wood based products. Ants are social insects. An ant colony consists of workers and a queen. The workers are wingless females, 1/4 to 1/2 inch long, the smallest residents of the colony. They gather food and water to feed the colony, and gnaw out wood to make the areas in which the colony lives. Carpenter ants are nocturnal, which means they are awake at night and sleep in the day.

Habitat:

Carpenter ants nest in live and dead trees and in rotting logs and stumps. However, they will also construct their nests in houses, telephone poles, and other man-made wooden structures. Ants found living in nests built inside houses are built in wood which has been exposed to moisture. Ants normally live and forage in the soil. Nests are commonly found in porch pillars and roofs, window sills, and wood in contact with soil. Ants can establish a nest above the soil if an acceptable moisture source is found.

Notes:
