Types of Ants Common In Pittsburgh
There are three types of ants you’re likely to spot in your home: odorous house ants, pavement ants, and carpenter ants. While they’re unlikely to harm you or your family, these ants can contaminate your food and damage your home. Regardless of the type of ant, our exterminators are prepared to quickly eliminate the infestation!
Odorous House Ants
Odorous house ants get their name from the smell they emit when crushed, which is similar to rotten coconut. They build their nests in warm, moist places which include in wall voids, under flooring and near water pipes. You’ll likely find odorous house ants in the kitchen, as they’re drawn to sweets and meats
Pavement Ants
Near driveways, sidewalks, and patios are the most commonplace for pavement ants. They live deep under the soil, making it difficult to eliminate them on your own. Pavement ants often enter homes in search of food, using cracks in the foundation, expansion joints, and gaps around pipes as entryways.
Carpenter Ants
Carpenter ants are drawn to damp or decaying wood, putting homes with moisture issues at an increased risk of infestation. They excavate channels through the wood, weakening it and potentially causing expensive structural damage. While they typically enter through gaps in the foundation, carpenter ants will also use tree branches as bridges to gain access to the roof.
