Eagle Eye Pest control

There are 455 different types of ants found in North America and around 8,000 worldwide that have been identified. They are black, brown or reddish-brown in color. Size varies from 1/16 of an inch long to 1 inch. The queens may from 1 to as long as 15 years! It is the carpenter ants that invade decaying areas of lumber in buildings hollowing them out and causing serious structural damage. Stinging ants like the red imported fire ant (reddish color, 1/4 inch in length) and the southern fire ant (brownish-red with black of brown abdomen and head, 1/16 to 1/4 inch in length) inflict highly painful stings. They can be quite dangerous to babies and young children.
Fire ants aside if you can tolerate some ants they are fascinating to watch. They do aerate the soil and destroy some caterpillar pests.

First Step

1-Remove the invading ants

2-Remove the attraction

3-You can try erasing the scent trail that the ants have laid down by using a citrus-based repellant, available at some grocery and hardware stores. Some people have found success with cayenne pepper and cinnamon as well.
