  • Torch it!

  • where is the gas and lighter?

  • can you eat carpenter ants ? deep fried maybe ? chocolate covered ? You never know ?,

  • See even the ants are prepping. They gather enough food to last them through the winter. the rotting decomposting vegetation deep in thier hills keep the whole colony warm too. Oh well to much Discovery, National Geographic and History chanel for me lol. But if you wactch what is going on in the animal kingdom it will give you a good idea of how hard a winter you will have by the amount of food they are storing.

  • id hate 2 step in that! eeep! now im all itchy! thanx

  • Thanks for the reminder. How long does diazanone keep?

  • And now I'm itching all over!!

  • Why do ants suddenly appear... Every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be... Close to you!

  • kill it with fire, kill it with fire, kill it with fire!

  • Aaaaaaaaaaaaaants^^

  • The video isn't up to your standard. Several minutes of watching ants scurry around carries no informative value. Looking forward to your next effort. Such as; any word yet on Sensible Preppers III?

  • need a hungry bear or anteater.

  • These things destroyed my deck. Apparently they don't actually eat wood, they just dig into it for their nest. The ones here in this part of Canada (Manitoba) are black.

  • err thank goodness i live somewhere cold cuz that awould suck hard i hate bugs and yet they important to ecosystems

  • looks like its time for a little "chemical" warfare! Kill the zombie ants! lol

  • Those buggers are really active for January, it must be a little warmer where you are at.

  • @yaahme This was taken in the summer. I found the video footage and decided to upload it.

  • Don't fall down!!!

  • got any Dragon's Breath... that'll burn em up haha

  • @mrbreezyboy7 nice lol

  • Where's my propane torch when you need it?

  • @The1cemanCometh my thoughts exactly...

  • Carpenter ants are all black. 

  • @MrAppleseed88 They can be a number of colors. They are predominately black in the Mid West. This was shot in the western NC Mountains at my dad's place.

  • @sootch00 Cool... When I was 5 I was bit or stung by one of these. Let a red mark for a while. It hurt. I always kept away form them after that.

  • @MrAppleseed88 The Carpenter Ant are easily ID'd when you look close, they carry hammers, saws, and have nail pouches on...;)

  • @yaahme :)

  • Nope! I have never been biten by these ants. We have a translucent red ant here that is about the same size. It's kinda rare to get bitten by both. Ant video? :)

  • @wpkxr99 Every ant can bite, just not all of them can sting you since alot of em dont have stingers. For example, a fire ant can sting you after it bites your skin and inserts its stinger. These wood ants can bite and could inject formic acid, their defense mechanism against other insects, but not likely as they have no stinger.

    I"ve always loved ants so thats my nerdy comment for the day, lol!!

  • @evrykneewillbow Thanks for the info on ants. 

  • well that was all well and dandy, but how do we kill them. Or a better question would be, how did your great great grandfather kill them?

  • anyone else feel tingles in their feet while watching this?
