There are two types of domestic ants — Pharaoh ants and thief ants (domestic ants). The former cannot exist without a person and live only in residential premises. The latter are adapted to life with and without people. They usually live in basements, periodically stealing food from houses and apartments.
The main reason for their appearance is insufficient cleanliness of the premises. Leftovers and crumbs attract insects. The arrival of insects is also possible from neighbors who have begun to fight against them. And often the ants are carried by the person himself on clothes, building materials, furniture.

Domestic ants like warmth and humidity, so they live in homes closer to water and food: behind the cabinet at the sink in the kitchen, behind the baseboard in the bathroom or behind the tile.
