ants...............

ok.... every summer ants build a massive colony in my front garden, down in a drain thingy . its always big, you can usualy see big swarms of them in the driveway. but this summer its massive! there are alot more than usual. so i did a wee experiment. i got a cricket went over to the ants nest and stamped on the ground next to it. 1000's rushed out and i droped the cricket on them. they swarmed all over it and in about ten seconds it was completely covered. after it was dead they took it into the nest. it was awsome.

Let this be a lesson to you... If you should trip in your front garden...

dont even go there......

It'd be pretty incredible if you could talk to them in ant language.

I'd go outside, lay down, and say... "carry me to work... While I sleep.."

lol. i wouldnt close my eyes, though. they may decide they would rather eat you than accept your weekly payments.

Would you eat your boss?

You might kill him, but would you actually EAT him?

Consume his flesh?!

HIS EYES?!

Besides, I wouldn't pay them. What the hell do you pay an ant with? Apart from food but they can get that easy enough.

I'd introduce a currency into their society and watch as greed and corruption destroyed their society.

But then i'd have to walk to work.

But really I don't think they'd eat you if you carried insecticide with you.

In Mexico I burn fireants.
And stomp on them.

Why?

yeah. the whole colony is one giant mind.

its awesome, have you seen those ones that jump from trees and attack ppl, i think there from tasmania i cant remember what there called, but apparently they kill a few people a year.

isnt it only new queens and kings that can fly tho?

i think some workers get wings to look for food, new places to colonize, etc. i dunno though.

I've seen swarms of flying ants in Mexico.
Don't think you can have that many queens/kings.

Birds went crazy eating them.

The flying swarms are reproductives coming out to form new colonies. Termites do something similar.

Lycan, I believe you're thinking of jack-jumper ants.

yeah thats it jack jumpers there nasty lil things haha

if there reproductives then wouldnt they have to be kings and queens, as there the only ones allowed to breed arent they?

because the females would have to become queens and build there own colony, and the males would find them and wel ... hump them that makes them kings really doesnt it, have you seen the footage where they try to get to the queen and she accepts him but hes too big so the worker ants chew his wings off so he can fit down the burrow lol the wings dont get wasted btw they get taken in for food lmao

I think they mate with the drones like wasp no king

there not drones though, cuz a ant drone would be one of the workers, and male ants have wings as do the queens before finding a suitable are to colonize, im sure the males with the wings are bred specialy, and im sure they are fed up more than a worker, technically there isnt a queen all she is there for is to reproduce, she has no power at all lol

I hate ants so much. They are very incrdible and resourful but I want them all dead.
