Are Ant Colonies Dangerous?
Although ants are often more of an annoyance than a serious threat, when left unchecked, they can cause significant damage by destroying structural components of your house, spreading bacteria, biting people when threatened, and even causing severe allergic reactions in you or your family members.
Some ant species, like the fire ant, have been known to infest areas of a home and short-circuit vital electronic wiring throughout the walls and ceilings. More common property damage includes cases where ant holes form in the backyard, quickly killing nearby gardens and plants by burying them with dirt for their nests and disturbing important root structures near your gardens and trees. This is why you need to address ant problems quickly.
Most ant bites are considered non-dangerous to humans. However, a few stings from fire ants or harvester ants can cause considerable pain. Common side effects from these species include severe swelling, intense pain, nausea, blistering, and, in some cases for those who are allergic, even death.
Common Types of Ant Species In OKC
Fire ants, which favor warm, sunny areas for their nests, build underground mounds capable of housing up to several hundred thousand ants. Fire ant stings contain venom that causes an intense burning sensation, with common side effects including severe sweating, nausea, excessive itching, red bumps, and white pustules.

Due to their larger size, carpenter ants are easier to recognize compared to similar species. They are notorious for building nests and colonies in wooden materials, including structural supports for your home’s walls, flooring, and ceiling. Did you know that carpenter ants can spray special chemicals into the wounds of their enemies to make their stings more painful?
