The one on the right looks like a yellow ant/citronella ant. Terro PCO Bait
stations will knock them down if they are trailing in. Terro bait stations are
self contained mixture of corn syrup and boric acid....basically very safe.

Subject: [pestlist] Pest Identification
Hello Pestlist,
I am seeking help identifying the ants caught in this trap here at the Ringling
in Sarasota, FL. We have had similar ants of varying sizes found in other
traps, but it is unclear to me whether these are all the same type of ant or
different. Also any information on the type of ants would be helpful. The trap
was placed on the second floor in our paper storage archive. Any information is
greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
