I came home today to find a dozen carpenter ants and hundreds of larvae underneath everything in my apartment.?
Only saw a few ants, but I’ve killed hundreds of larvae. They don’t seem to be near food, just underneath stuff, especially paper. They seem to appear out of nowhere as well. I don’t know if it is fly larvae and the ants were eating it or if it is the carpenter ant larvae. If it’s the carpenter ant larvae, why are they on my floor? why not in their nest? Help please. Thanks.

Well, there’s a good chance that the floor, as well as the walls and ceiling, ARE their nest. You should contact your landlord ASAP because there’s a good chance an exterminator is going to be needed.

First of all you need to get a professional to look at the problem before it gets bad but, check for wood damage or loose food if you can. It is probably your neighbor’s ant problem. larvae usually are bad. If they are maggots you probably have something dead/food in you apartment.
