Its about 5mm long and the light pinkish colour is almost clear in sun light. It's making nests in our timber deck and likes surface spray. Any advice appreciated.

Try this, we had various types of ants trying to take over our house, put this down and a couple of weeks later you start finding very drunk looking or dead ants everywhere. Even kills carpenters. The trick is not to kill the alive ones you see walking around, hard not to do when they parade across the floor by the thousand www.amazon.com/TERRO-T300-Liquid-Ant-Baits/dp/B000HJBKMQ
After spending already hundreds on antkilla products I found that all ants love to eat borax. Cheap from Bunnings, $8 a kilo. Mix with some water, sugar, honey and flour. Looks like not very healthy product for any ants.
on a previous block down here we had bull ants. Tried all sorts of remedies, finally poured kerosene down the holes, was about 3 litres then lit a match. Fair go trees were catching fire spontaneously 5 days later. but we got rid of the sods. so funny to see smoke coming out of the sports oval next door.
