Carpenter ants do not eat your wood for food, as they only use it to establish their colonies to live and reproduce. Aphids and shieldworms secrete a honey-like substance and the carpenter ant cannot get enough of this food. They also love carbohydrates as they tend to eat anything sweet such as jelly, syrup and honey.

The black ant also likes sweet things. However, they will also eat fat, grease, and meat. The diet of the two ants is remarkably similar, although most people often mistake the larger ants for eating wood.
