While carpenter ants don't sting or pose health risks like some pests, they can cause significant structural damage to Richmond Hill homes by tunneling through wood to build nests. This is especially concerning in the neighborhood's many wooden-frame houses and older construction. Left untreated, carpenter ant colonies can compromise beams, joists, and other structural elements, leading to costly repairs that far exceed prevention and treatment costs.
