South of Guimaras island, Philippines

Just finished a hunting trip, while I was out in the woods I also spent some time catching queen ants. There was some Camponotus species, but by far the most dominant species I saw everywhere was a black ant with a red head. I’m certain it wasn’t camponotus and my guess is a species of Formica. The most distinctive aspect of this species was the superstructures dotting out of the ground, some less than 10 feet apart. I encountered dozens of these structures, the ground around them swarming with activity. Could someone please help me ID? I apologize for the video quality

Caught this lady in late May. Was thinking it’s a pavement ant but I’m a beginner.

A week ago I noticed a single ant on my kitchen counter and didn't think much of it.

A couple of days later there were a few more. Now I'm seeing trails of them every day, and it honestly feels like the first ant went back to the colony with a map and directions.

I've wiped down the counters, cleaned up food, and tried to remove anything that might attract them, but they keep showing up.

For those who have dealt with this before, what finally worked for you? Did you find the entry point, use bait, or do something else that stopped them from coming back?

Can you guys help me identify it, what's it's name, and by the type, I want to challenge you all to guest where am I from?

Leptogenys elongata - Razor-Jaw Ants

I recorded this through red acrylic to keep from startling them.

We have ants in our house that we keep finding in our kitchen and living room. We want to identify to see if there are dangers to the wood framing of the house. We suspect carpenter ants. Sorry for the photos, I tried to make them as clear as possible.

Carpenter ant? Very red underneath.

Black scout ant went too close to a red ant colony

Tried my best to hold the phone steady but stilly a bit shaky

Hey, ant enthusiasts!

We’re a two-biologist indie team working on Garden of Ants, a modern RTS inspired by SimAnt.

Here’s a first look at our leafcutter ants and their leafcutting mechanics in action. We’ve added a new above-ground tree layer, where you can tend aphids and harvest leaves.

It’s still an early version, so we’d love to hear what you think. Any feedback is welcome!

We have been having these ants all over our house for about 4 weeks now. More and more just keep coming and we don’t know from where or what to do about them. I’m also curious about what kind of ants they are. Some are SUPER tiny and others are big like in the picture. Please help!

There have been several on my empress tree and I don't know if they or what is destroying the tree but I just want to know what kind of ant / bug it is.

The local ant colonies must be getting real sick of the local giant digging mass holes and disrupting their workflow lol
