Tulsa Exterminator has every possible solution for ant infestations and every other pest infestation. These insects always live in groups and colonies. Their colonies include queens, alates, and workers. Queens are in a higher position as they have the ability to reproduce in their colony. Meanwhile, alates or male ants’ job is to mate with queens. Then comes the worker ants, whose job it is to do menial work and serve the queen.
Since ants always live in large populations, their infestation can leave severe impacts. They can pose many health threats directly or indirectly, such as E. coli, salmonella, etc. But don’t worry if you have Tulsa Exterminator by your side.
Ants and their characteristics
Ants are eusocial insects that belong to the Formicidae family and the Hymenoptera order. They are available in 22,000 species; that’s why they are different in size, shape, and color. But all of them go through four stages in their life cycle. The first stage is the egg stage. Here, the ant has to live in the egg for 14 days. If it begets into a female ant, it means the egg is fertilized, but if the egg begets into a male ant, it means the egg is unfertilized. Then they enter the larva stage where their color is mostly transparent. Afterwards, ants enter the pupae stage, where they have to live in a cocoon. And finally, they reach the adult stage, and set into their colonies.
When ants hover in an area, they will leave some signs. Such as ant trails, rustling noises, discarded wings, sawdust, piles of dirt, etc. You may see ant eggs too. But how do they look? Ant eggs are small, i.e., 0.5 mm in size. They have a sticky, shiny texture of white transparent color. The surprising fact is that ants can give 1000 eggs in a day. It means they have the ability to reproduce rapidly.
