Acrobat ants
Acrobat ants are a nuisance ant with the unique ability to hold their heart-shaped abdomens up over the rest of their bodies. This gymnastic exhibition happens when the individual or nest is disturbed, they then release a foul-smelling odor. Acrobat ants contaminate food and can strip insulation from around wires, potentially causing short-circuits. Power wires, tree branches, and shrubs provide easy access to your home’s exterior then in the foundation, windows and doors, and in holes along the roofline. They like out-of-the-way areas near high moisture or fungal growth to nest such as behind walls, in structural wood, under floors, and inside crawlspaces. Professional pest control services are required to eliminate these ants.
