Wood-Loving Ants Can Lead to Costly Repairs

Carpenter ants can often be as destructive as termites when it comes to gnawing on wood around your house. If these ants decide to make a nest in your home, the result can be thousands of dollars in repairs to fix the damage left behind.

Since carpenter ants only nest where there is moisture, their presence likely indicates you have a pre-existing moisture issue. They burrow into wet or rotting wood and love to eat the fungal growth within. Carpenter ants will also eat other insects as well as food scraps and crumbs.

To prevent carpenter ants, have any wet or rotting wood replaced by new wood materials. Have your home also checked for any weakened wood or structural issues as well. Keeping your gutters clean and storing your firewood in a dry place away from your home is another way to prevent issues with carpenter ants.
