Size | Less than 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). |

| Significance | This is an outdoor species that occasionally enters homes. It doesn't normally nest indoors and is primarily a nuisance. | |
