However, if you’ve seen more than a few, there are some things you should know. First of all, carpenter ants do not eat wood, but they sure can damage it. They get their name because they chew through wood creating tunnels and galleries. Usually they nest in moist wood, however, if that’s not available they will expand into sound, dry wood where structural damage can take place quickly. Some even nest in foam, fiberglass insulation, or wood/foam composites.

So, whether you have even seen a carpenter ant or not, it is to your benefit to protect your home against them. Shell-Guard RTU is an excellent solution for preventing any problems.
