What kind of ants are these? I have had both plus little tny ones this summer. If the dead one is unidentifiable, Let me know and I will try to catch a live one. Thanks!

It looks like a crazy ant, but I can't be sure from the photo. With ant identification, you need to look at the specimen with a hand lens or microscope so you can count segments of the body, look for presence or absence of a stinger, look for hairs, etc. You can submit samples to your local extension service for identification.
