Can ants eat paper?

Ants do not eat paper in the same way that they consume food, as paper is primarily made of cellulose, which is not digestible for them. However, some ant species may chew on paper to use it for nesting material or to access organic materials trapped within it, such as food residues. In certain cases, ants might also break down paper if it contains sugars or other nutrients. Overall, while they can interact with paper, it is not a primary food source for ants.


What will mold a banana faster clear plastic bag a brown paper bag or 10 foil?

Mold is the growth of various types of bacteria on a surface. In order for the growth to occur, there has to be enough nutrients and a good atmosphere. Since foil does not have any organic compounds, it is a very poor source of nutrients so would result in lower mold production. Plastics are not good sources of nutrients either, but they do allow for more light and so would have less growth than the paper (an organic product) bag, but more than foil.


What does the organism mold eat.?
