Lebensraum
Es kommt im Westen Nordamerikas vor, wo es Nester in totem Holz, einschließlich abgestorbener Stämme in den Wäldern, sowie in menschlichen Häusern baut.
Als Schädlinge
Zimmermannsameisen beschädigen Häuser, indem sie in ihnen nisten. Sie graben Tunnel in Holz, um ihren Lebensraum zu erweitern, und können zu strukturellen Schäden führen. Der Befall im Haus ist normalerweise eine Satellitenkolonie, wobei die Hauptkolonie innerhalb von hundert Metern oder mehr in einem Baumstumpf oder einem anderen verrotteten Holz liegt. Wenn Kolonien beginnen, sich in Häusern niederzulassen, können sie klein anfangen (einige hundert Mitglieder), aber auf mehrere Zehntausend anwachsen. Es kann 20 oder mehr Satellitenkolonien geben.
