 Encounters with giant carpenter ants are likely to start by encountering a forager. This individual will be located from 100 to 600 yards from the nest. Upon contact, the ant will attack, clicking and releasing a pheromone that will quickly spread outwards. This will bring 1–2 additional workers within 2–8 rounds. Following this first encounter, another like it will occur again, if the party presses towards the nest, with +1 additional worker appearing. Thereafter, all the remaining workers will be on high alert, remaining within 50 yards of the nest, for a period of 1 to 4 hours — at which time they will begin to forage again.

 There is a fair chance of finding treasure in a carpenter ant nest. Instead of carving up their victims before returning to their nest, carpenter ants will collect the whole body of humanoids they find.
