Quick Answers
Are carpenter ants a problem?
Yes. Carpenter ants do not eat wood, but they tunnel through damp or soft wood to nest. Piles of fine sawdust near trim or a window are a sign.
Why do ants keep coming back after I spray?
Store sprays kill the ants you see, not the colony. Bait that workers carry back to the nest works better for most kinds.
Does an ant control company need a license in Washington DC?
Yes. Washington DC licenses or certifies anyone who applies pesticides on someone else’s property for pay, through its state pesticide regulator, most often the department of agriculture. Ask for the license number before work starts.
