Thief Ants Guide

Thief ants get their name from their invasive behavior and the way they forage and steal resources from other nearby ant nests and colonies. These pests are attracted to high protein food sources including grease, cheese, meat, seed, etc and can be difficult to get rid of once they establish a presence in your home.
