Appearance- Carpenter ants are usually large and black colored, with bent antennae, a narrow waist, and longer front wings. Carpenter ants are often confused for termites which have straight antennae, a thick waist and four wings all the same size.
Behavior - Swarmer carpenter ants have the ability to fly, and often are sent out from an existing parent nest to create a new satellite colony. When they find a location to nest, you may start to see holes in the wood of your Marathon Shores, FL home, such as in the walls or on your porch. Termites will leave mud in the excavated areas, so it does not look smooth. Unlike termites, carpenter ants do not eat wood and will leave wood bits and dust behind as a sign of their current residence in your walls.
Carpenter ants seek out damp and rotting wood to live within. They like to live in tree stumps or fallen, rotting logs where moisture is present. Parts of your home that are exposed to the elements are most susceptible to carpenter ant damage.
Carpenter ants tend to be a nuisance, and an untreated colony can pose a threat to the stability of your Marathon Shores, FL residence. Too much burrowing into the wood could compromise the integrity of some housing structures. Satellite colonies may pop up if a nest is left untreated for an extended period.
Getting rid of carpenter ants ensures that your home will stay safe from their burrows. Professional carpenter ant control is the most effective way to kill carpenter ants and stop their colonization in its tracks.
Call us today to treat or prevent your carpenter ant problem so you and your family can rest assured the foundation of your Marathon Shores, FL home will be safe. We are the #1 Marathon Shores, FL carpenter ant control company.

Amazing customer service!
They responded immediately to my initial call. Although the first service was not so smooth flowing, the succeeding visit was great! They took care of all my concerns and even left a written note with answers to my insistent questions. I am aware that I can be a demanding customer, but after this visit, I now know that I can count on the two professional guys.
The service ran smoothly! There was no odor which is great since I had the kitchen and upstairs bathroom treated. They told us that we call call a retreatment if we are still seeing ants after 1 week. So far, I am not seeing any so I hope they have totally eradicated them.
Kudos to Florida Pest Control's rep who took care of our ant and bee problem. He was prompt, polite, and very thorough.
