Pests We Treat - Carpenter ant nest in attic.
Usually, we find ants invading our homes during the warm summer months when these insects are most active, and the workers are foraging for food. However, as this homeowner found out, ant infestations can happen any time of year. If you see ants during the colder temperature months, your home probably has an ant nest in its wall or ceiling voids. It would be extremely rare for ants to forage in from the outside during the cold months.
