How does borax kill antshow do you mix it?
Borax kills ants by disrupting their digestive system and causing them to die of starvation. To mix it, combine equal parts of borax and a sweet substance like sugar or honey to attract the ants. Place the mixture in areas where ants are commonly seen and replace it regularly until the ant infestation is gone.
When you split a sweet down the ants comes around it in minutes how do ants do this?
Ants use scouting workers, sending them off in all directions. Only one of these needs to find food, after that she'll return to the colony and tell the others by dragging them with her. If the food is still there, the ones that have seen it will return and drag others with THEM, until a steady chain of ants is formed and all the food can be taken back. The more ants are interested, the more will arrive. It's like democracy!
What symbiotic relationship is between aphids and ants?
The ants squeeze the aphids to extract a sweet tasting liquid and in return, that ants protect the aphids. I do not believe the foregoing statement. I wonder whether the person who wrote it has ever seen anything of the kind happening. I have seen ants eating aphids, cutting them up and carrying them away, and I have seen ants stroking aphids with their antennae, which seemed to stimulate the aphids into giving up honeydew. However, I may have misinterpreted that stroking; possibly touching the aphid with the antenna was just to see whether there was any honeydew to pick up, and the aphid might have been about to produce honeydew anyway. In any case, there certainly is a symbiotic (more precisely, mutualistic) relationship between many kinds of ants and many kinds of aphids. Generally speaking it takes the form of ants protecting aphids and removing their (unwanted) honeydew for their own purposes.
