Camponotus festinatus is a species of carpenter ant. C. festinatus is typically found in the Southwestern United States and northern reaches of Mexico. It is most commonly found around Tucson, Arizona. It lives in the semi-dead branches of palo verde trees found in the area. C. festinatus is an exclusively liquid feeder. It can only feed on sap from trees or the juices of a deceased animal. Like most ants, its diet is primarily sugar with some protein. C. festinatus ants are not known to be aggressive except towards other ants. Soldiers will prefer to run from humans rather than bite or sting. Their stings, however, contain formic acid.[citation needed]
