Size | 1/16 inch (It is often challenging to recognize ants from a picture. Because different species may be treated differently, be sure an ant problem is correctly identified before attempting control). |
| Where/when | Only nests indoors in Minnesota and can be found at anytime during the year. They take advantage of their small size and nest in a wide variety of small spaces, cracks and crevices, including countertops, baseboards, wall voids, and many other small voids. | |
| Significance | Can be a very annoying and persistent species. It forages into many places to infest food. | |
