Thank you so much- I was finally able to get my father's chair moved into his Long Term Care home after the preventative treatment you applied to it. All your staff was very professional, especially Alex the tech who was able to get this done so quickly, he was great- your price was very affordable too. Thank you again

We had carpenter ants indoor and called pestend after having read good reviews online. Javaid came to our place on time and spent a good deal of time understanding the issues and spraying all three floors of the home. He also went around the house and sprayed and lay ant bait. We haven't seen any ants, centipedes, and spiders in the house and the ant activity outside has significantly decreased. We looked forward to working with Javaid and pestend in the future!

Interesting Facts About Carpenter Ants

Ant Physical Characteristics

Physical Characteristics

Length: Lengths vary from 6-12 mm for worker ants to at least 25 mm (one inch) for queen ants.

Colour: Black or Reddish Brown.

Other features: One node, evenly rounded thorax, large mandibles, the fringe of cone-shaped hairs on the end of the abdomen.

Carpenter Ants

One of our largest and most common ants, Carpenter Ants feed on a great number of pests and are considered helpful insects in their natural habitat. Carpenter ants get their name from their habit of excavating galleries inside wood and keeping these galleries meticulously clean and finely finished. These excavated galleries expose damp or damaged wood to natural decomposers like fungi and other insects that break it down quickly. However, their behaviour is considered a problem when nesting in lumber used for homes or buildings, establishing colonies in moist wood, insulation, hollow doors and voids inside walls.

Carpenter Ant Colony Toronto Control

Colonies

Their colonies are made up of different ant castes (for example, larvae and pupa, worker ants, reproductive adults and a queen). Winged reproductive adult carpenter ants (alates) swarm away from a developed colony later in the spring or in early summer. Noticing a swarm of carpenter ants performing mating flights may be an early warning sign of a problem. Outdoors, carpenter ants prefer to nest in rotting wood. Moist wood found in posts, tree stumps and landscaping ties, as well as dead tree limbs or the heartwood of a tree, are perfect nesting spots. A nest found in structural wood is usually a satellite nest of an outdoor colony located nearby.

Indoor Preferences

Indoors, carpenter ants prefer to establish nests in places where slight humidity or dampness has softened wood. This can include wood-panelled doors, wooden cabinets around dishwashers, moist areas behind fireplaces, baseboards and windows, as well as inside various types of insulation such as polystyrene and fibreglass which materials are untreated against the impact of an insect attack. The colony size is usually proportionate to the wood space where the nest is located. Carpenter ants rarely destroy the wood structure, although establishing several satellite nests in the wood can cause serious damage.

Carpenter Ant Indoor Preferences
Carpenter Ant Reproduction Cycle

Reproduction Cycle

The queen of a colony will lay between twenty to thirty eggs and feed the larvae until pupation. These pupae emerge into worker ants that look after the queen and create a larger colony for fresh eggs when this cycle occurs again in the middle of the summer. All carpenter ants start out as minor workers with mandible and head sizes proportionate to the body. It is their responsibility to care for the queen as well as the eggs, larvae and pupae. With larger heads and mandibles, these ants are responsible for defending the colony. The colony continues to mature for about three to six years, during which 3,000 or more calendar ants can exist and, in some cases, produce as many as 400 adult ants or alates that may swarm from the nest to disperse to other colonies during the spring and fall of each year. Usually during the night, minor and major carpenter ants both travel a distance of at least 100 meters from the nest searching for food, while only about ten percent of other colony workers will forage for food at once. The ant’s life cycle is about 66 days.

Dietary Preferences

These ants search for food far away from their nests and can invade a building structure at any time of the year. In the winter months, a dormancy period known as diapause takes place over several weeks in colonies that are located in colder areas (i.e. against the outer wall of a building). Noticing carpenter ant activity inside a building in the winter will indicate the existence of a nest usually near an inside wall or other warm location. To avoid freezing while overwintering, these insects concentrate a substance in the blood similar to the commercial antifreeze, ethylene glycol.

Carpenter ants don’t eat wood. Rather they chew through it, leaving behind insect frass similar to the look of sawdust. This behaviour is also seen in other species like the Acrobat, Thief and the Little Black ant which all nest in rotting wood and produce insect frass. The diet of the carpenter ant consists of various plants and insects and sometimes human food. In order to keep the nest clean, carpenter ants eject waste from insects and other material through the nest opening which can bring attention to the nesting site itself.

How to Kill Carpenter Ants

The following guide is a detailed guide on exterminating ants from your house or commercial property.

Ant Extermination Step 1 Identify Location

Step 1

Identify areas where you see the ants. Finding all the areas is essential since if you miss an area the ants will continue multiplying. That’s why you should hire a professional ant exterminator. They know where to look and are able to find all the ant nests.

Ant Extermination Step 1 Identification

Step 2

Identify the type of ants that you have. You can use our ant encyclopedia to find out which kind of ant is infesting your home or business. Hiring one of our professional ant exterminators means that you can avoid an extra time-consuming hassle.

Ant Extermination Step 1 Identification

Step 3

Purchase professional ant spray for the specific type of ants you have. Make sure to spray vigorously in the areas where you see ant activity and try to find their nests. Our professionals are trained to identify these nests so that you don’t have to.

If you go through the steps above but still find ants on your premises after spraying all the ant spots that you found, then you should contact a Pestend ant control technician to analyze your property and give you a low ant extermination quote.
