Anthill

Do you hate ants?

Most of us find them annoying at one time or another and the fireants here are already getting busy and starting to drive me crazy.

Don't ask my why I (or the scientist who study ants) wonder about where they live. But somebody did try to find out about ant abodes. They poured plaster (and in a few cases molten aluminum) into ant holes to see just what the ant nest looked like and this is what they dug up:

Creepy, huh.

Now you know.

That is awesome Sara! I have been thinking about it randomly ever since i saw your blog last night. So cool! I had no idea that ants dug so deep or made little 'rooms'!

It kinda looks like a cool high rise apartment complex. Creepy but cool.
