These creepers live in colonies, some large enough to accommodate over three million insects. They wreak havoc in their large numbers and cause a lot of property damage. Ants don't just tumble into your space. They get attracted to sugar and grease. These substances are a perfect source of food to the ants, and a yard covered in residue becomes a hot-bed for colonization.
Second, ants trek long distances in search of water. A yard full of water puddles, therefore, attracts an army of ants. These numbers, however, grow during the dry seasons. Last, ants' nest in the lawn when they find an undisturbed, dry spot with well-drained soils. Ants might enrich soils by improving the aeration patterns, but that does not mean you should tolerate them.
Remember, increased insect activity breaks up the solid soil particles making them weak. The result is a loss in plant root grip. Plants then dry off and fall to the ground. Having an ant colony on-site, therefore, hurts the landscape. Financial losses amounting to thousands of dollars are also inevitable, meaning you must eliminate these pests when you can.
