Carpenter Ants

Carpenter ants can cause serious structural damage by tunneling through wood to build their nests. Unlike termites, they don't eat the wood, but their presence is just as destructive if left unchecked. Our expert pest control services are designed to eliminate carpenter ants efficiently and prevent future infestations.

Dealing with carpenter ants can be confusing and stressful, especially when you notice signs like frass or rustling inside your walls. Our FAQ section is here to help you understand what you're up against and how our service works to keep your home safe.


Q: How can I tell if I have carpenter ants or termites?
A: Carpenter ants don’t eat wood; they excavate it, leaving behind sawdust-like frass. Termites consume wood and usually leave mud tubes. An expert inspection can quickly determine the difference.


Q: Are carpenter ants dangerous to my home?
A: Yes. While they don't eat wood, their tunneling can weaken structural components over time, especially if the colony has spread to multiple locations.


Q: What’s the best way to get rid of carpenter ants?
A: The key is identifying and eliminating both the parent and satellite nests. Our team uses targeted treatments informed by carpenter ants’ behavior and nesting patterns to ensure effective removal and prevention.
