Argentine Ants ...
The Argentine Ant (Linepithema humile) can be found in locations that provide suitable moisture and darkness for their needs, nesting in exposed soil, rotting wood, treeholes, garbage heaps and even beehives.
They are usually found in lower elevations of the home. Most often encountered during the summer, this species prefers sweet foods but will eat meats, insects, seeds, fruit and honeydew from sap suckers like aphids. It may also cause damage to soiled clothing. This is an aggressive species that drives other ants from the area, disrupting the local ecology. Their tendency to promote the proliferation of sap suckers like aphids can result in serious damage to crops.
