Carpenter ants don't make houses; they chew right through them. These tiny creatures mean big trouble if they choose a person's house or another structure as a perfect place to make their home. Readers are invited into a carpenter ant colony to learn how each ant has a job to do. They'll learn what people do to keep these insects away as well as the role they play in their native environments. Graphic organizers, fact boxes, and vivid photographs add to this engaging look at some fascinating creatures. Working together, carpenter ants are truly a force of nature.
