  • What experiments can you do with ants?

    Take your sugars outside and leave them near an ant pile. Wait about three hours. Count how many ants are near each pile of sugar. We found that the liquid sugars and blue sugar was the most popular with our ants.
  • What are some ant behaviors?

    Ants are very loyal to their own colony, but they can be quite nasty toward outsiders. Competition among colonies for food and other resources often leads to aggression. Many species establish a territory around their nest that is off-limits to neighboring ants.
