What is an Ant?
Ants are among the most common pests found in homes across the U.S. Though small in size, they group together in large colonies that can cause many problems. While there are many different types of ants, all species can be identified by their elbowed antennae and slender waists, which distinguish them from termites.
Ant colonies feature complex social structures with a queen and many workers. Their primary reason for entering homes and causing problems is a hunt for food and water. If they can easily find either in your home, whether it’s easy access to pet food or a leaky pipe, they will keep coming back.
There are several different types of ants you’re likely to encounter in California, including:
- Carpenter ants
- Harvester ants
- Argentine ants
- Odorous ants
- Velvety tree ants
