Citronella ants (Lasius (Acanthomyops) species) are 1-node ants (subfamily Formicinae). The ants in the pictures have 2-nodes. There are options: Little Fire Ant (Wasmannia auropunctata), Pharoah ant (Monomorium pharaonis). I think the first mentioned one.

There is lot of them around entry way into one of our buildings. They look yellow to me. I am not sure if they are juvenile ants.
