Re: Why is my Queen ant licking herself
Ants saliva has antibacterial properties. When she eats an insect it gets all over her, so she has to clean her self off. Think of it like what a cat does to clean itself.
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.
