I've seen a few ants in my house. I called two exterminators. No one has been out yet. But, I get two very different stories: One says carpenter ants are a MAJOR problem (much worse than termites) and is hinting at a $600+ charge (they claim they are the only ones who do this and THIS is the only way to remove them). The other one doesn't think its that much of a fuss, and thinks it will cost much less. Both are coming tomorrow for an estimate. I'd like to hear stories from others regarding carpenter ants. TIA.
