Little Black Ants
Appearance: Small, dark brown to black ants measuring about 1/16th of an inch in length, with a distinctive uneven body shape and a two-segmented waist.
Behavior: Omnivores that feed on insects, vegetables, sweets, and greasy or oily foods. Although they have stingers, they are too small to pose a threat to humans.

Habitat: Common in areas with abundant food sources and moist environments.
Field Ants
Appearance: Typically light yellow, reddish-brown, black, or a mix of these colors, with a distinctly uneven, rounded body shape on the upper side. Adult workers measure approximately 1/8th of an inch.
Behavior: Field ants generally avoid swarming homes and are more often found in gardens or landscaped areas.
Habitat: Prefer outdoor settings like gardens but may enter homes occasionally if nearby.
