Default What type of spray for Carpenter ants?

If you have carpenter ants you have a bigger problem
than the ants irritating you. Carpenter ants destroy wood and
if they are inside your house, they are almost certainly
nesting inside the wood of your house. The destruction,
if left unchecked, is similar to termites.

Similar, but not exactly the same. Carpenter ants don't actually EAT the
wood as termites do. They treat the wood like regular ants treat dirt: they
hollow it out to make nests - and carry the sawdust outside.
