Recognizing Carpenter Ant Awareness Week

Have you been seeing Carpenter Ants scurry about? It’s no surprise. This week is Carpenter Ant Awareness Week because they’re quite busy invading homes and commercial buildings right now.

We’ve talked about Carpenter Ants on our blog before. Remember when Carpenter Ants caused trouble in the rectory? Pests can cause quite a problem if you don’t know what signs to look for.

Previously, our expert Lou has taught us how to prevent Carpenter Ants.

Carpenter Ants build nests in dead and decaying wood. Approximately 1/2″ to 1″ in length, they can cause significant damage to your home – and they can do it fast!

Today, we want to share some photos of damage done by Carpenter Ants. As they destroy wood structures, they can wreak havoc on your home and outdoor sheds – often in places out of your sight!

Learn more about the warning signs of Carpenter Ants and the steps to protect your home. There are both preventative measures and emergency eradication procedures you can take, depending on your situation. If you think you have a problem, the most important thing you can do is act quickly!
