Carpenter Ants Literature
The literature is bursting with references, stories, articles, etc. concerning carpenter ants. Some excellent information is available from:
- National Pest Control Association
8100 Oak Street
Dunn Loring, Virginia 22027
800-678-6722 (NPCA)
This association will most likely refer you to a local exterminator. Ask if they have any free literature that will help you with your pest problems.
Give them a call and ask for any and all pertinent information regarding carpenter ants and their control.
If you like visiting libraries, especially ones that have a decent periodical (magazine) collection, then you will be amazed at what you will find. Several magazines have had excellent feature articles on carpenter ants. If your library is like mine, it very well may have these back issues on microfilm or on a computer disk. Both would allow you to print out a specific article in a flash! The magazines are:
- American Entomologist
- Pest Management
- Pest Control
- Pest Control Technology
