Carpenter ants destroy the wood in your house. A colony in your yard can have multiple satellite nests in your house, causing significant structural damage to the integrity of your house. Carpenter ants create nest in wet and moldy wood. This is why repairing any water damaged wood will help to keep the ants out. They enter buildings through cracks in exterior walls or the foundation where wires, plumbing, cable, and telephone lines enter the home. The obvious sign of an infestation is seeing carpenter ants crawling on the foundation of the house, small exit holes in siding, sawdust piles, and ants inside the home. They characteristically will travel far from their nest to forage for food.
