Homeowners often look at ants and never stop to consider that there are various species. Each species has their own unique characteristics, and the two species commonly seen in Utah are the pavement ant and the carpenter ant.

Our experienced team at Beeline Pest Control is adept at identifying these species, understanding their behavior, and determining the most effective treatment.

The Feeding Habits Of Ants
Ant species vary regarding what they eat. Many people assume carpenter ants eat wood just as termites do. The truth is they chew through the wood, but don’t consume it, although this may do damage to the structure. They leave behind a material that looks like sawdust, and this material can be of help in finding their nest. Black carpenter ants are commonly found in Utah. Pavement ants are frequently seen in the state and are often referred to as sugar ants. They love to eat anything, including honeydew, honey, meat, ice, insects, and cheese. This type of insect often gets into human food, as they like the items people eat. Black ants also love to eat sweets, which helps to explain why they are also often found in kitchens.
Understanding Ant Species in Utah
This expanded section dives deeper into the ant species native to Utah. It details the distinguishing features, habitats, and feeding habits of common species like the pavement ant, known for its preference for greasy and sweet foods, and the carpenter ant, notorious for damaging wood structures. The section also covers less common but equally problematic species, explaining how their presence can impact homes and gardens. It highlights the importance of identifying the specific ant species to tailor the most effective treatment strategies.
Detecting Ant Infestations
In this expanded part, we delve into the methods of detecting ant infestations, a critical step for timely control. It includes detailed descriptions of signs like ant trails – a line of marching ants, which often lead to food sources, and nest sightings – small piles of soil or wood shavings indicating a nearby colony. Additionally, it discusses how certain species, like carpenter ants, can cause noticeable wood damage. The section emphasizes the importance of regular inspections, especially in hidden areas, to catch infestations early, preventing extensive damage and health risks.
Ant Colonies
An ant colony can grow rapidly if not removed. An ant colony may be home to anywhere from 300,000 to 500,000 insects. When the colony is threatened in any way, it will uproot and find a new location quickly. One reason ants are so hard to get rid of is the worker ant may live for seven years. The queen ant may live as long as 15 years and reproduce multiple times during these years.
Why Are Ants So Hard To Eradicate?
Using do-it-yourself products often doesn’t work when homeowners are dealing with ants. These products lack the strength of those used by professionals and often only treat those that can be seen, not hidden in the home. Once ants begin dying off, others in the colony realize there is a problem and relocate, making it even harder to kill them. Property owners find that treating the home or office makes the problem worse as a result of the actions they have taken to try to resolve the problem.
Interesting Facts About Ants
- The queen ant lays the eggs, and then the worker ants take over, caring for the eggs until the babies emerge
- An ant is capable of lifting up to 20 times its body weight.
- Ants have one of the largest brains of all insects. In fact, an ant has an average of 250,000 brain cells.

Reviews from Utah Residents
I have had Beeline spraying my house for several years now. Adam is the best to work with. Very knowledgeable, thorough, respectful of my home and friendly. If you have any bug issues, I would highly recommend calling.
Camille Roop
Tanner is very efficient and pleasant to work with. He has treated our properties several times. We started using Beeline several years ago when we had an ant problem in our house. Since we started using Beeline, we don’t have that problem any longer.
