Bundesrat of Germany. The German Bundesrat (literally Federal Council; pronounced [ËbÊndÉsÊaËt]) is a legislative body that represents the sixteen LÃ¤nder (federated states) of Germany at the national level. The Bundesrat meets at the former Prussian House of Lords in Berlin.
Carpenter ants are the largest of the house-infesting ants. Workers within the colony range in size from about 3/16 to 5/8 inches in length. Color varies among species, although black seems to be predominant. Carpenter ants, like termites, tend to prefer wood that is partially decayed by wood rot.
The queen ant is larger, up to 3/4 inch. Swarmers, winged male and female ants who are born in the Spring in order to mate are also about 3/4 inch. Carpenter Ants are one of our most common ants. They are found in dead wood, such as trees, fallen logs, stumps, or even in houses.
