Winged Ants. Most of our calls about winged ants end up being about Carpenter Ants or Moisture Ants. Both of these ant species produce flying ants in their nests, and both types of winged ants swarm into, onto, and out of homes. If you have flying ants in the spring, April or May, you probably have Carpenter Ants.
Carpenter ants (Camponotus spp.), also known as sugar ants, are large (0.3 to 1.0 in or 0.76 to 2.54 cm) ants indigenous to many forested parts of the world.They build nests inside wood consisting of galleries chewed out with their mandibles, preferably in dead, damp wood.They do not consume the wood, however, unlike termites. Sometimes, carpenter ants hollow out sections of trees.They also commonly infest wooden buildings and structures, and are a widespread nuisance and major cause of structural damage.hey do not consume the wood, however, unlike termites.
