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.
Ant - Life cycle. 1  The life of an ant starts from an egg. 2  The larvae grow through a series of four or five moults and enter the pupal stage. 3  A new ergate spends the first few days of its adult life caring for the queen and young. 4  Ant colonies can be long-lived.
