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 Ocala, 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 Ocala, 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 Ocala, FL home will be safe. We are the #1 Ocala, FL carpenter ant control company.

Giving five stars may not look like a legit review but we just got a new house and had an immediate pest issue. Fox Pest Control had someone out the same day I called them! That impressed me! They gave me the technician's name and the time he would be out. He even came out earlier than expected, which was great! They were professional and listened as I went over our pest issue. They did a thorough inspection of our property and then resolved the problem the following day! The customer service lady that assisted me was great too. She let me ask all my questions. I'll be recommending Fox Pest Control and keeping up an annual maintenance plan!
Professional, Detailed, Thorough....that's our technician!
I have consistently received quality service from this Fox Pest Control and its technicians. The representatives communicate well with us.
I received a comprehensive treatment for the house today! I was well-informed of the treatment plan and pricing for the complete maintenance program!
I have been working with Fox Pest Control for more than one year already. I had to seek help to get rid of the field mice, carpenter bees and wasps. The technician I usually work with was very perceptive and keen! He made sure that he would address my requests every time he came out. Keep up the good job!
