FAQs About Ants
Odorous house ants are small. They measure around 1/16″ to 1/8″ in length and are either black or brown colored. Their uneven thorax is one feature that differentiates them from other ant species.
Ants will invade homes for food, water, and shelter, often creating nests in walls and floor cracks. Some ant attractants include meats, starches, sweets, vegetables, dead insects, and even pet food. Some ants, such as pavement ants are also attracted to honeydew–which is produced by aphids.
Odorous house ants are not dangerous but they can contaminate food by leaving their waste behind.
No, odorous house ants do not bite or sting, but they can become a nuisance in large numbers.
Other than physically seeing ants in or around your home, a strong dirt smell could also indicate an ant infestation. Another sign of an ant infestation is an ant nest. Ant nests look like small mounds of dirt.
To help prevent an ant infestation, you’ll want to eliminate standing water, trim back plants and branches away from your home, and ensure there are no small cracks around the bottom of your home. Also, keep your home clean and store firewood at least 20 feet away from your home and on a raised structure to help keep ants away. You may also want to consider installing door sweeps underneath your exterior doors.
