 == Description ==
-Any member of over 8000 species of insect in the Formidicae family. Ants live in organized colonies generally separated into three classes of queens, males, and workers. Ants have a six legs, bent antennae, and a segmented body with large head, thorax, and abdomen. Their life cycle, from egg to adult, is 8 to 10 weeks. Adult worker ants can live up to 7 years. Ants are scavengers and feed on either plant or animal products. [[Carpenter%20ant|Carpenter ants]] are one of the most damaging species to historic homes. Found in warm, moist climates, they damage wood by hollowing out spaces for nests.
