Yeah, when I was 5, I liked to screw around with ants, cuz I was the youngest in the neighborhood(everyone was always at school). Gotta say, making ants swim and dipping them in dusty sand was entertaining, it's just ants, there's too many anyways.
i used to drown ants alot..and the other day i saw a flying ant so i clipped off his legs, wings and antenna then burned his face with a lighter, he was just rocking back and forward for ages :(
@Dennisthemenice666 Lol, i saw a red ant that had wings fly right next to em while i was sitting down in my front yard, it really scared me so i kileld it immediatley,.. now i want an ant farm and i already kileld me first queen ant lol-.-
lol i dug up a bunch of meh sandbox (its infested with ants) and i found the larvea (or whatever its spelled like) and a bunch of drones, but never the queen lol
so are there ever queen ants inside the house?? because theres a lot of ants in my house and i found one yesterday that was HUGE, way bigger than the others but the same kind.. what do you think?
queens r tank they dig a tunnel lay eggs then kill the gimpy offspring i think my queens special cozz alot of her offspring dont form right and hatch with half a body no abdomen or legs antenne :[
0:10 i was under the assumption that one colony has only ONE queen that lays eggs like a machine,, i am 90% sure that if there is two queens they will kill one.
@SainterX In certain species after years of growing a colony reaches the most efficient size say 10,000 ants. When they reach that certain size they start sending out new queens. But before these new queens go to make their own colony they do live in the original colony. During the early spring is the most likely time to find multiple queens. The rest of the year you're probably more likely to find only one queen.
@SainterX I learned about them watching the science channel. They should have lots of programs about ants on you tube. Here is a good you tube video i recently watched on harvester ants that teaches you how a colony works /watch?v=ukS4UjCauUs
@PhuckHue2 yeah it is disgusting actually, if you enjoy torturing things and killing them in such psychotic ways then there is something seriously wrong with you.. i don't like ants in my house but i don't enjoy doing cruel things to them to kill them..
@howtoguro don't open that stupid mouth of yours if you know nothing about science and anatomy. ants, just like 99% of animals, have a nervous system, that means they do feel pain. you dumb idiot!
@TriedToDrownAFish next time do it with alcohol. it will swell up like a balloon real quick and pop. fetus ants will fly everywhere. nice clean wholesome fun :)
Quite simply, the queen will produce in such large numbers that the ant farm will be overrun, and the colony will start to die. Pretty cruel, and not nice to teach your kids.
First of all, NO ONE should mess with an ant colony. Not only are you disrupting nature, you put yourself at risk whether you can handle an ant bite or not. Queens are not easy to catch, with the queen being deeply concealed within the chamber, and soldier ants will attack while attempting to move the queen...so good luck with that. If you do happen to catch a queen, the rest of the colony will die without her and so will your ant farm.
i think there is like one quenn that breeds and others that can breed but there already is a queen so if you make a colony it would be perfectely fine to take some queens and if you tear their nest apart it will just give them something to do
I dont support this video at all, as he is talking about destryoting the colony and pulling queens out of the intact colony at all. If you want to find ants, you may have to know about when the swarm time is, and also know about where may some colony's living. If they are big enough, you'll be able to find queens if you really want to. Otherwise there are shops selling them...
@dogz0898 you have no imagination and ants are the least disgusting of all bugs if you gotta problem with ants how do you even go outside with all the far more disgusting bugs
ahh why would i want to have an ant farm what happens if it spills? that would just be creepy. i want to find the ant queen so they would stop crawling all over my room D:
It's even easier! In summertime and early autumn, you just have to have your eyes open to see ant queens. They're as common as flies. Do some research about how queen ants look and carry a little flask with you always. I GUARANTEE you will randomly find 2-3 queens in the next few months. And they've been fertilized just minutes ago.
You can start your own ant farm right from the start! It's much more exciting that way :3.
@Owneador1337 what ants breeding season is in autumn so i know what to look for i havent seen any queens or king ants yet i live in oklahoma if that helps
@cobraopts7 Well, I am European, but after doing some research I see Oklahoma must have a pretty dry climate; so you can expect pretty big ants out there.
Princess (unfertilized) queens come out mostly in the evening and hang around until night time. Check the Internet to find what queen ants in your zone look like, and keep your eyes on the floor when walking around and carry a small test tube with you. If you find a princess without wings, it means she is fertilized (they chop them off).
ant farms were fun when I was a kid... not they have gel farms that are even better built in food... boy times change, from dirty/vermiculite now to gel. LOL
@Sickshot12 Even if you take one from a Nest with multiple queens she'll never make new eggs. If you don't know anything about ants please don't try to act smart...
@bliofet I'm going to listen to the adult with professional pest control job over some 12 year old kid who has an attitude problem because he can't make a successful ant farm.
@Sickshot12 I've got 4 colonies at home and i don't think he's a professional, because opening an ant nest that probably took months for them to build sure isn't a good idea... Now do as you wish, if you want to destroy a whole colony, your choice...
@Sickshot12 Now please, go back to GMOD and continue copying some of Dasboschitt's videos, coz that's probably all you know to do, besides you're fireBALLS...
This guys with a pest control company, he probably wants kids all over to bring ant farms into the home so they can break and suddenly you need to hire someone (like him!) to help you out with the ants!
It was so long ago, I don't really remember. Keep in mind that I was 8 or 9 years old...but it kept our attention, so I'm guessing almost they started running out immediately, with an accelerating rate. Maybe 3-4 minutes until they started evacuating with the eggs.
When conditions are hot and humid after rain and wind is minimal, masses of winged sexually reproducing ants or "flying ants" will leave their parent nest and take flight [3]. The mating flights occur simultaneously in all ant nests of the particular species. The female "queen" ants will fly a long distance, during which they will mate with at least one winged male from another nest. He transfers sperm to the seminal receptacle of the queen and then dies
this is not how you capture a queen. do not listen to this man. first of all most colonies only have 1 queen. second you must use extremely sophisticated techniques to capture a queen alive that is already in a working colony. If you want a queen, you must wait until mating season(early summer) and find a queen without wings(if she has wings she has not yet mated). even then youre success rate of a colony in an aquarium is small.
The worker ants will get together and make a miniature crown from sand and a special saliva in their mouth . Once a particularly fertile female is identified they will place the crown on her head. To identify queens just look for the small crown. I recommend using a magnifying glass.
one of my lifetime dream is too capture a queen ant and kill it.....not no silly sugar ants, or even fire ants.....i wanna capture wanubi queen ant or bulldog queen ant
you shouldnt really take the ants from the wild, becuase if you take the queen becusae then the whole nest are gonna die, just look on the streets for a bigger ant they are queens looking for a new nest just take them.
