Message: [QUOTE="Notafan, post: 3147516, member: 9871"] Just piggybacking on this. I bought a home a few years ago and it had a 3 season room. We thought it was great, until we came home one day to hundreds of carpenter ants plus flying ones. I finally had enough one day and ripped open the walls. Found a 2x4 that I could put my finger through. The ants had eaten through a whole corner of the room. When I took down the walls, sawdust was everywhere. They thrive in damp wood, and we later found that one of the windows wasn't sealed properly, making the wood in that corner damp. Don't sleep on these ants because they can cause huge structural problems. [/QUOTE]
