Carpenter ants are one of the most common ant problems in homes. They don’t eat wood, but they tunnel through it to build nests, which can weaken damp or already damaged areas over time. They’re often found around window frames, decks, basements, and any place with moisture. If you notice large black ants or sawdust-like debris, don’t ignore it. Early treatment matters, so contact a professional for carpenter ant control.
