Ants

Carpenter ants typically prefer moist or damp environments where they can find wood to nest in. While they may be found in some desert regions, they are more commonly found in forested areas or places with high moisture levels. In arid desert climates, they are less likely to thrive due to the lack of suitable nesting conditions.

Ants typically need a variety of foods to thrive, such as sugars, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. This can include sources like nectar, fruits, seeds, insects, and even dead animals. Ants also require water to survive and will often seek out moisture sources.

Ants are in the following classifications:

Kingdom: animalia

Phylum: Anthropoda

Class: Insecta

Order: hymenoptera

suborder: apocrita

superfamily: vespoidea

Family: formicidae

Depends (of course)

- Siafu (army ants) of Kenya for mass destruction

- Jackjumper ants of Tasmania

Siafu will eat you alive in a matter of minutes. And bug spray won't protect you.

harvester ants and fire ants can give a nasty bite that often gets swollen and bullet ants gives one of th e most painful bites. Also bull ants have the most venomous bite of all ants.

Nigriceps ants have adapted to their surroundings by making their homes in the Swollen Thorn Acacia tree. The ants prune the growth of the tree to ensure that it grows vertically and is difficult to attack by other ants. The environment is too wet or too dry by times for them to nest on the ground.

what type of mouth does a ant have

A Bullet ant usually will live for up to 90 days. There are other species of ants that have shorter lifespans and longer lifespans. The queen can live much longer than the regular worker Bullet ants.

Myrmecologists studt ants!

Ants get their food by sending out scout ants to find a food source. Once food is found ants us pheromones to alert others in their colony to where the food is. The ants follow this trail to the food source.

Yes. The chemicals in the ant poison were meant to kill. It could definitely kill a hamster, even in the tiniest amounts. Never place a hamster next to ant poison.

they go around hunting and what ever they find they pick it up put it on their back and take it home or to the queen

a baby ant is called a antling

The ichneumon wasp matches this description. They have a red and black body, four wings, and a long stinger that can be very painful.

Human and ant hearing capabilities are very different from each other. The hearing frequency range for an ant is said to be 1kHz.

Female ants have only 2 chromosomes, males are haploid, they have only one. This is the smallest number of chromosomes for any animal.

Because the fluids that the ant uses to sting you is an acid and soap is a base so they neatralise each other and that stops the pain for a while.

They are called a Swarm of Ants

forest floor

I would say yes. Im in South Africa, and we have small black ants. Sorry I dont have the group name. But I have a colony in my bathroom. So sometimes honey bees die in the window, and I feed them to the ants. And they do eats them, and take it into the nest.

They are like human jaws in that they are used for biting.

They differ in practically every other way. Ants (like other typical insects) have four jaws each (two mandibles, two maxillae); the jaws are not made of bone inside and flesh outside, but flesh inside and the hard part (a sort of concrete of sclerotin and chitin) outside.

Ant jaws don't have separate teeth, but have serrations (saw-like pointy bits).

Their jaws work from side to side instead of up and down.

Their jaws are smaller in absolute terms because ants are smaller than humans, but usually larger in relative terms (a human with jaws like a bulldog ant would look like a crocodile).

It is not easy to think of ways in which they are alike.

An ant is not an aquatic insect, so if it was underwater it would most likely drown. But ants are designed to survive flooding, so if it is suspended on the water it would have a good chance at surviving.

You can't, sadly its against federal law.

http://buy-ants.breezily.co.uk/live_ants/buy_ants allow you to buy live ants within the UK and Europe (and offer a guaranteed replacement if they die during transit).

They do not sell Queen ants however as they state this is unecological.

Aesopâ??s fable of â??The Grasshopper and the Antâ?? are meant to show the desirability of hard work and prudence as its moral. The Grasshopper who spends all his time in idle pursuits is left between a rock and a hard place when winter comes and he, unlike his industrious ant acquaintance has nothing to tide him over the winter. It is only by the kindness of said the ant that he is given charity and not allowed to starve to death.
