Best Answer

Following proper cultivation procedures, minimizing pollution, monitoring collectors and hunters, protecting transportation routes, refraining from pesticide use, and respecting habitat are ways to take care of weaver ants. The insects in question (Oecophylla spp) number among the world's beneficial animals because of preying upon fruit tree pests. The fatty acid- and protein-rich weaver ants serve as prized delicacies and traditional medicine in Oriental cuisine and culture so their populations can be threatened by over-zealous collectors and hunters.
