Imported Fire Ants October 01, 2015. Fire ants live in an extensive network of tunnels in the soil. How deep this network extends into the ground depends on age and size of the colony, soil texture, and depth of the water table. Tunnels in fire ant nests have been found to a depth of 10 feet or more, but most tunnels are shallower, starting just beneath the soil surface. Colonies in clay soils have deeper tunnels than those in sandy soils.
Carpenter ants are one of the largest of all ant species. Carpenter ants have polymorphic workers, meaning that ants within a single colony may vary in size. Adult carpenter ants can measure from 6 to 12 mm in length. Males, or winged swarmers, can measure up to 18 mm, while queens grow to 20 mm in length.Carpenter Ant Size.A mature colony usually contains around 3,000 adult ants, but some species have been known to contain up to 100,000 ants. Like other ant species, carpenter ants are social insects, and their colonies are composed of different castes.ales, or winged swarmers, can measure up to 18 mm, while queens grow to 20 mm in length.
