An old cartoon: Man says to woman: 'Yup, you've got carpenter ants. See those tiny beer cans?'
Last summer we moved my mother and one box of papers had for some reason become a nest for carpenter ants. I took it out on the driveway and dumped everything out to sort out what was worth saving. It was a hot day, mid 90s, and the ants did not deal well with the sun and the heat. Killed all of them in short order. Not that this helps the question that much.
Around here, tiny Argentine ants make life tough on the much larger carpenter ant. I saw it one time, they just swarm the suckers.
