Harvester ant. Harvester ant is a common name for any of the species or genera of ants that collect seeds (called seed predation), or mushrooms as in the case of Euprenolepis procera, which are stored in the nest in communal chambers called granaries.
Types. Various species of ants cause lawn damage, including the western harvester ant, the carpenter ant, common black ants and the red fire ant. Use the mound sizes and any trail patterns to narrow down the species if the type of ant infesting the lawn is unclear.n ant infestation in a lawn is frustrating and ruins the appearance of the grass. Ants damage lawns in both small and large numbers, and simple tasks such as mowing become difficult as nesting mounds can sometimes damage metal mower blades.
