Important Considerations:
Where to Find Them on Your Property?
You will find Yellow Ants around moist woods, soils, cement structures, or near/adjacent to structures along foundation walls. Their nests can be found under logs or stumps, and in soil underneath stones. Moisture in or around your property can attract these ants, so it’s best to dry those areas if possible. Other areas you may want to check is your crawl space or underneath plants like Ivy.
