Common Ants
- This is a common pest that could be found in and around most premises.
- They are social insects and live in colony with a caste system.
- If an ant nest is established within the premises, killing the exposed worker ants seldom gives permanent relief because the queen in the nest will continue to produce more workers.
- Common ant types which usually cause nuisance include the fire ant, pharaoh ant, odorous house ants, crazy ant and weaver ant.
Signs of infestation: ant trails and ant nests.
