Commonly found throughout the U.K and are found frequently close to dwellings.
The start of a new colonies begins when a mated winged female digs into the earth and sets up a cell in which she lays large number of white eggs which hatch after 3-4 weeks. These eggs hatch in to white legless grubs which the female feeds from a secretion from her salivary glands. The larva mature and pupate within the cell after just 3 weeks. The adult ants emerge after around 2 weeks.
The first generation of adults will be workers, these will now tend to the queen and the next batch of subsequent larva will collect a verity of food materials to the nest. This ranges from small dead insects, nectar, and sugary secretions produced by the green fly and black fly. In late summer winged males and larger winged females will be produced from the nest, these will leave the nest in large numbers usually in the afternoon and mate on the wing. The males will die quickly after mating and the females that survive will start new colonies.

Just a short note of appreciation for a job well done. A first class professional and competitive service that I would not hesitate in recommending to anyone. Having shared a garden with several moles for a lengthy period of time, I'm happy to say that I now live in a mole free zone, all of which was achieved with two weeks of contacting PCS.
