In the USA, there are over 1,000 species of ants. Most colonies consist of a queens (fertile females), workers, drones (fertile males), and soldier ants. Ants can damage valuable crops and invade yards and buildings. The red imported fire ant is considered as an invasive species. They are native to South America and accidentally introduced to Australia, New Zealand, Asia, the Caribbean, and the United States of America.
Common ants are called Acrobat Ant, Carpenter Ant, Cornfield Ant, Little Black Ant, and Pavement Ant. They come in many colors, black, brown, red, and yellow. Generally, most ants are predators, scavengers, and indirect herbivores. Foraging ants will travel up to 700 feet from their nest or colony. Even in the dark, scent trails help them to find their way back to their nest. Everyone loves a picnic and so do ants. They seek food sources like sugar (sweets), and protein-based food. They will carry grass and leaves back to their nest and use it for building fungus gardens. Ants like to feed on sugars found in plants, fruits, or foods stored in your pantry like bread, crackers, cereals, candy, peanut butter, jam and other types of food. At St. Louis Pest Brothers, using our pest control methods and knowledge, we will rid your home of bothersome ants. We are the best Pest Control company in the STL. |
