Fire Ants?! Well actually fire ants conatin a dermatitis like toxin that activates when introcued to skin cells and triggers a small alergic reaction, almost like a small jelly fish.

How do you get rid of ants that are living in an area of a wall where your addition and original house meet that previously had bees in it?

It's best if you get an exterminator in to see if you have just ants or carpenter ants. Carpenter ants love rotten wood or moist places and can do a great deal of damage. The exterminator will have to look for the Satellite nest to destroy that first. It's true that just because you see a carpenter ant (black and much larger than other ants) can travel quite a ways but doesn't mean you have them in your walls. Go outside the perimeter of your house and if you have a woodpile (move it!) Check for rotten wood (near the ground and under eaves) and rotten areas on your roof and see if you can't repair it. Get some quotes on exterminators and be careful they don't try to charge you too much.

Are ant detritavores?

A Detritivore is an organism that feeds on and breaks down dead plant or animal matter, returning essential nutrients to the ecosystem. Detritivores include microorganisms such as bacteria and protists as well as larger organisms such as fungi, worms, and isopod crustaceans. In a food chain, detritivores are primary consumers.

An Ant is not considered a detritivore but an omnivore. Ants are successful as a species because they have the ability to make a meal of many different types of things. They can eat plants, turning the plant matter into energy or they can eat meat. Different species of ants prefer different types of food. Some eat other insects and dead animals that they come across, while others eat sugar, fruits, seeds, oils, vegetables and other sources of proteins.
