 Window Sill
Depending on its condition, a wooden window sill could be a nice
place for carpenter ants to hang (especially if the wood outside has started to
rot). The ants bore into the wood to make their nests. The queen ant has it
good—she stays inside the nest, lays eggs, and tends to the young while the
worker ants scavenge for food. (Get this: Worker ants can go as long as six
months without food!) The queen can live up to 15 years. Carpenter ants also
take a liking to rotting wood porches.
I'll check my wood later. Take me back to the room.
