Ants are very resilient insects that can live pretty much anywhere in the world. They are very social, living in a colony with a queen ant, worker ants, eggs, larvae, and pupae. The worker ants are in charge of keeping their nests up and running, offering protection against the outside elements. <\/span>They strategically locate their nests by sources of water and food. Find out how to ger rid of the ants in your home, and learn when you may need to call in professional ant pest control services.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your Guide to Michigan’s Ants<\/span><\/h2>\n

Depending on the species of ant, they nest in the ground, as well as under concrete or slabs. Other species may be found in wood, including fence posts, dead logs, dead trees, or even inside buildings. While they may live inside of the wood, they cannot consume it much as termites can. The only reason for this is because they cannot digest cellulose, meaning that they have to find their food sources from other places.<\/span><\/p>\n

The body structure of an ant is typical of almost all insects.<\/span>
\nAnts have six legs and a tough exoskeleton that encases its head, thorax, and abdomen. They also have antennae and waists, making them easier to identify. The benefits of an ant\u2019s exoskeleton are numerous; it is tough and rigid, protecting it from weather, injury, and water loss. <\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to being a protective barrier for an ant, its exoskeleton allows for super strength, allowing them to carry objects many times larger and heavier than they are. This is very important for ants, as their main job is to contribute to the success of the nest. By being able to carry large items, they can provide food and shelter for the remainder of their colony.<\/span><\/p>\n
