Black Garden Ant

Tapinoma nigerrimum

Black Garden Ant

Black Garden Ant workers inhabit soil nests in gardens, parks, open woodland, and urban areas. They are omnivores, gathering honeydew, nectar, small insects, and scavenged animal matter. Defensive gland secretions give these ants a sharp chemical deterrent when threatened.
