Harvester Ants

 

Characteristics 

Size: Harvester ants range from 3/8-inch to 1/2-inch in length.  Color: The color varies from red to reddish brown to black, depending on the species.  These are probably the ants that your dad would try and burn by pouring  gas down the hole and lighting on fire.  We of course don't recommend this, as it is cruel, dangerous, and hard on the environment.  There is a much easier way! Read on, and look for a product that will help you down below. 

Habitat and Behavior

Harvester ants are farmers in the sense that they gather seeds as their primary food source. They generally clear large circular areas completely free of any vegetation around the nest entrance hole.  These ants aggressively defend their nests and will bite vigorously; some species will sting.
