Signs of an ant infestation

Recognizing signs of an ant infestation is key to managing and eliminating it before it becomes more severe. Here are some common signs that indicate you have an ant problem in your home:

Visible Ant Trails: One of the most noticeable signs is seeing lines of ants traveling to and from a food source. Ants leave a pheromone trail for others to follow, which can lead them into your home.
Ant Nests: Although nests are often hidden, signs like small piles of dirt or soil in the yard or under foundations can indicate nesting sites. Indoors, nests might be harder to spot but can occur in walls, behind baseboards, and in other secluded areas.
Live Ants: A large number of live ants around the home, especially in the kitchen or where food is stored, is a clear sign of an infestation. Even small numbers regularly spotted can indicate a larger hidden problem.
Wood Damage: Carpenter ants can cause damage similar to termites by excavating wood to build their nests. Look for wood shavings and signs of damaged wood around the structure.
Swarms of Winged Ants: Often confused with termites, flying ants (or swarmers) emerge from nests to start new colonies, typically seen in the spring or during warm periods.
Sounds: Carpenter ants are large enough to make a rustling sound as they move through their galleries in wood, which can sometimes be heard during quiet times.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to act quickly to determine the extent of the infestation and to manage it effectively to prevent further damage or spread.
