Common Misconceptions
“Carpenter ants only attack rotten wood — they’ll also tunnel in dry, sound wood near moisture.”
“Small nests aren’t a big deal — even a small colony can damage framing and insulation.”
“All ants are the same — carpenter ants are larger, more destructive, and tougher to treat.”
