If you look close, they are kinda "hairy" looking, antennas are slightly longer,they dont usually bite either. They are very bad for electrical things. When one gets zapped with electricity, they send out a scent or alarm and more keep piling on till your electrical device shorts out. In Houston Tx. they have spent over a million dollars on treatments to keep them out of the big power plants. When they invade an area, they will outforage other ants,and literally eat all the instects all the way up to baby birds. Had some experts tell me they had found some places in the woods where there was bunches of these ants and in the evening everything was silent. No crickets chirping or nothing.
