Ghost Ants Size: Tiny, usually less than 1/16-inch in length. Color: Pale, with a dark head and abdomen. These ants are very difficult to see unless one looks closely. Ghost ants may develop huge colonies containing thousands of workers and numerous queens. This ant is now a major pest throughout most of Florida and several of the Hawaiian Islands. It occasionally is found in apartments and greenhouses in northern states. These ants nest outdoors under items on the ground, within landscape mulch, beneath loose bark on trees, under ground cover, in potted plants, and within piles of items such as lumber, firewood, or bricks. Nests may be readily established inside homes in walls, beneath carpeting, and in other suitable voids or spaces.
If you are not sure where they are in the wall, or if you think that they may just be coming in from the outside, then try a non repellent insecticide and/or a bait on the interior. Baits such as Advance Carpenter Ant Bait, , Advance Ant Bait for Small Ants, or Maxforce Gel can be applied to areas where ants are foraging. Ant Cafe's can also be used to hold and protect your bait on the inside. Ghost Ants taking Advance Carpenter Ant Bait

If you know with some certainty where the colony is living inside, then you can treat it directly (or as close as possible) with a non-repellent insecticide, a dust or a foam. Dusts include Delta Dust, Drione, or Borid Turbo.
Use the Crusader or
B&G Bulb Duster to apply your dusts or baits
into Note: Use only one bulb duster for each formulation. You don't want to contaminate your bait with an insecticide.
For added control on the exterior, use a hand held spreader to apply a pesticide granular product such as Talstar Granular. Using this product will allow you to get complete coverage to hard to reach ground areas, and in mulch or rock areas that liquids may not reach. It is a sand-like granular that will filter down into those areas where ants are likely to be harboring.
