Hi there.

I moved my mower out of my garage this afternoon - it sits by an inside wall. I came back in to the garage about 30 minutes later and saw something crawling on the wall just about where the mower had been. Totally sceeved, I took a closer look and found out the "thing" was about thirty small carpenter ants all circling one large one... and a few strays. My gut instinct was to go for a bottle of spray, which I did, since they were an easy target.

I have not had a problem with carpenter ants to this point. I see them outside, but not in the garage or my house. Now I keep searching the garage for more... I did recently have a large pine tree removed not far from the garage.

Is this something I should get checked out?

Thanks!
