Carpenter ants are the ant Burnaby homeowners should worry about most. They chew galleries into damp or damaged wood and can quietly damage a house from the inside.
A colony runs satellite nests inside the same building, and a queen can live over 20 years. You can tell them apart from other local ants by the smooth, rounded middle section. Most other ants here have a bumpy one.
Pest Boss handles carpenter ant control across Burnaby. We track the ants back to the nests and treat the colony.
Give Pest Boss a call if you’re seeing any of these:
- Large black ants inside, often at night
- Little piles of fine sawdust near baseboards, decks or window frames
- Winged ants indoors in spring
- Faint rustling in a wall or ceiling
Seeing smaller ants? See our ant removal, moisture ant and pavement ant pages.
