| Pavement Ant |
|
Dark brown to blackish;
about 1/8 inch long. Habitat
Pavement ants get their name because
they make their
nests in or under cracks in pavement. Colonies are usually easy to find
due to
the piles of displaced soil next to and on top of pavement. Indoors,
pavement
ants nest in walls, insulation and under floors. They like to travel
under the
edges of carpet next to the tack strip.
Diet
Pavement ants are opportunistic feeders
that will
“swarm” on foods that appear within their foraging range, and are
therefore
easily controlled with bait. Indoors, they feed on meats, nuts, cheese,
honey,
bread crumbs, meats, grease and pet bowls.
Ant control: pavement ants
Individual pavements colonies can often
be controlled
using ant baits, but perimeter inspection and treatment are usually
necessary
for long-term pavement ant control.
Their colonies are controlled by direct treatment of nests in the soil.
