Ants, belonging to a family of approximately 11,000 insect species, live in highly organized colonies with complex social structures. These colonies divide tasks such as feeding, sheltering, and reproduction among specialized individuals. While fascinating in their natural environment, some ant species become pests, especially when introduced to new areas.
In New York City, several ant species commonly infest homes and businesses
Pavement Ants: These small, brown ants are often seen on sidewalks and porches, frequently swarming over food sources like dropped candy.
Carpenter Ants: Native to North America, carpenter ants nest within wooden structures, using their mandibles to hollow out the wood. They can cause significant damage, similar to termites.
Pharaoh Ants: These tiny (2mm long) orange-brown ants are notorious for infesting pantries. It’s crucial not to use store-bought chemicals or household detergents on pharaoh ants, as this can alarm the colony and cause it to split into multiple new colonies, each with its own queen and brood, exacerbating the infestation.
