AntsAnts (Myrmica rubra)
There are over 12,000 ant species throughout the world, and 570 in the United States, though only ten are considered major pests.
Most ants do not damage plants directly; rather, they will guard and tend to colonies of aphids, whiteflies, mealybugs, and soft scales, defending them from their natural enemies. Ants feed on the honeydew that these plant pests secrete.
Some ants damage plants through their nest-building, which can damage plant roots, soil structure, and even kill the plants. Control ants naturally with these proven organic products.
