Most common species of ants in Switzerland
What are the most common species of ants in the house and garden?
In Switzerland, there are around 200 distinct ant species. Some of these ants can be commonly found in the garden and house, while other rare species are safeguarded by the Federal Act on Nature and National Heritage Conservation (NHG) and its regulations. Although beneficial in the ecosystem, these abundant ants can become a nuisance and cause severe damage. Contamination of food by the transmission of bacteria and other micro-organisms, destruction of buildings through the formation of nests, and damages to electrical installations or wires are a few of the issues created by house-dwelling ants. In addition, contact with these same ants can even trigger allergic reactions in living beings. The following overview will focus on some of the most regularly occurring ant species that may be encountered in the home or garden.
Lasius niger - The geographical distribution of this ant species spans several continents. In Central Europe, it is the most common ant species. Due to its great adaptability, it is able to survive in different habitats, such as gardens, urban areas and even inside houses.
Formica rufa - Woodland red ants prefer sunny places near the edges of deciduous and coniferous forests as their habitat. Due to their social behaviour, they often form large polygynous colonies and groups of colonies that may consist of several nests. A rotten tree trunk is ideal for their nest construction.
Lasius flavus - The yellow ant can be found in different parts of the world, including Europe, Asia, North Africa and eastern North America. This ant species is often found in meadows, forest edges and gardens with large lawns, and prefers moist areas.
Monomorium pharaonis - The Pharaoh ant only survives in warm environments such as heated indoor spaces in temperate regions. To avoid the cold winter months, this species mainly inhabits buildings with a constant high temperature such as private houses and public buildings.
