Carpenter ants are significantly larger than regular ants (typically ¼ to ½ inch long) and are usually black or dark brown. Unlike termites, they don't eat wood but excavate it to create nests, leaving behind piles of sawdust-like material called frass. If you notice large ants, especially near wooden structures, hear rustling sounds in walls, or find wood shavings near baseboards or window frames in your South Jamaica property, you likely have carpenter ants requiring professional treatment.

Yes, carpenter ants can cause significant structural damage if left untreated. They excavate wood to build nests, weakening beams, joists, window frames, and other wooden structures over time. This is especially concerning in South Jamaica's older homes and buildings where moisture issues may already compromise wood integrity. Early detection and professional treatment are essential to prevent costly repairs—our inspections identify both the ants and underlying moisture problems that attract them.
