Ants are among the most prevalent pests in households. They are also found in restaurants, hospitals, offices, warehouses, and other buildings where they can find food and water. On outdoor (and sometimes indoor) plants, ants protect and care for honeydew-producing insects such as aphids, soft scales, whiteflies, and mealybugs, increasing damage from these pests. Ants also perform many useful functions in the environment, such as feeding on other pests (e.g., fleas, caterpillars, termites), dead insects, and decomposing tissue from dead animals.

Las hormigas están entre las pestes más predominantes en casas. Ellos son encontrados también en restaurantes, en los hospitales, en las oficinas, en los almacenes, y en otros edificios donde ellos pueden encontrar alimento y agua. En al aire libre (y a veces interior) plantas, las hormigas protegen y cuidan de zumo dulce-producir insectos tales como áfidos, las escalas suaves, las moscas blancas, y mealybugs, aumentando el daño de estas pestes. Las hormigas realizan también muchas útiles funciones en el ambiente, tal como alimentándose de otras pestes (por ejemplo, las pulgas, las orugas, los comejenes), insectos muertos, y descomponer el tejido de animales muertos.
