About Ants
Ants look much like termites and the two are often confused especially by nervous home owners. However ants have narrow “waist” between the abdomen and thorax.
As the majority of ant species prefer sunny climates, our environment is perfect for ants to thrive in. Although black or garden ants aren’t thought to carry diseases, they can be a particular nuisance when they get into your home. Considering that ants frequently travel through unsanitary areas before they end up on your countertops, you won’t want them marching through your food cupboards.
