hausdok Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Yeah, They are male reproductive swarming from a nest. They'll go as far as they can, land, shed their wings and try to establish a new colony somewhere else. Ants swarm in the spring and early summer; termites in late summer and fall.

ghentjr Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Well, they look like citronella ants. Smoosh one and you will know instantly. Nice aroma of citronella. They are pests but not biters. http://ento.psu.edu/extension/factsheet ... nella-ants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Lewis Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 What John said. Get near the nest and you may get the citronella smell. Or crush a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
