I think they're in our attic...they seem to be dropping from a bathroom light fixture above our toilet. I keep finding them in the water and I've seen them in the fixture. Is this an RIFA, a carpenter,....? This one was just shy of 1/4" long (others seem to fall in line with that too). They don't move quickly like the fire ants I've seen around mounds, but I guess that's because they're not protecting anything. I've sprayed fipronil and baited with Amdro around our house recently...can I do the same in my attic?

thanks in advance.
