Carpenter ants have the ability to cause a lot of destruction to the wood of a home. They burrow through and create their nests inside wooden structures. Anyone who does not wish to rid his or her home of these pests with chemicals can do so naturally.
Sprinkling a mixture of borax and powdered sugar around the home's trouble spots can kill the ants. The sugar draws them to the substance, while the borax will kill the ants by destroying their bodies' outer structures.
Compared to insecticides, the borax is relatively safe. It does not contain the toxic fumes and residue which many commercial methods posses.

What are the differences between black ants and carpenter ants, and do you have pictures to help illustrate these distinctions?
Black ants and carpenter ants differ in size, color, and nesting habits. Black ants are typically smaller and black in color, while carpenter ants are larger and can be black, red, or a combination of both. Carpenter ants also have a more rounded thorax compared to the black ants. In terms of nesting habits, black ants usually build their nests in soil or under rocks, while carpenter ants prefer to nest in wood, where they can cause damage. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide pictures to illustrate these distinctions.
