Carpenter Ants – In the Fall and Winter

 

Carpenter ant infestations usually occur during the months of April and May, then at the beginning of fall, as these ants look for warm and humid homes during the cold winter months. These wood destroying insects have no problem expanding and extending their satellite colonies. Rotting or wet wood is an utter treat for them as this wood is much easier to chew and build with. Old or rotting wood, poor air circulation, leaky roofs, over flowing gutters, cracked stucco and siding, condensation, and access to the soil, are all ideal conditions for these wood tunneling ants to make their homes in and around your house.
