The pavement ant is typically reddish-brown with segmented antennae and small parallel marks on their thorax. They have two bumps, or nodes, in their middle section, connecting the head and thorax. They have six legs, typically a lighter color than their bodies. Occasionally, some workers have wings and can fly short distances.
Pavement ants are one of the easier ant species to control. Seal any cracks in your foundation or concrete that lead into your home and make sure there is no food debris available for them to scavenge. If you see an ant trail, use a commercial ant killer or bait to eliminate the colony.
