Carpenter ants are the largest of the house-infesting ants. Workers within the colony range in size from about 3/16 to 5/8 inches in length. Color varies among species, although black seems to be predominant. Carpenter ants, like termites, tend to prefer wood that is partially decayed by wood rot.
Leaf-cutter ants live in large colonies, sometimes reaching three million ants. They build gigantic hills for their home. Sometimes reaching thirty feet across and twenty feet deep. One of the most widespread insects in the Amazon Rainforest, these ants are one of the primary consumers of vegetation. The ants do not actually eat the leaves, but on fungus.
