How to raise ants

Raising ants generally requires "a complete social community", because if a stray ant can only live for a few days. So while building a nest for it, prepare a queen and feed it some honey, jam or fruit every few days. Usually store it in a warm room and don't let the sun shine directly. Keeping ants is different from keeping other pets. You should pay attention to the following points:

1. When drying to danger, ants will attack or defend themselves by biting two big teeth, which secrete formic acid (formic acid), which irritates the bitten wound to be red, swollen and painful. So during breeding, do not come into direct contact with ants.

two。 Ants from eggs to adults only take 15-20 days, so there are more and more ants after a period of breeding, and the nest will burst when the nest can no longer bear it. After exploding the nest, we should use a larger ant nest.

3. Never mix two ant colonies together, they will fight to the death, which is too cruel for ants. So if your ants are captured rather than ordered, make sure they are all ants in the same nest.

4. Don't cover the ant farm-ants will suffocate to death. If you have to cover it, tie a tissue with a rubber band and stick a few holes in it with a pin. Or use fine wire mesh.

Ant breeding needs certain skills and patience to choke to death, and beginners should understand the relevant knowledge when preparing for breeding.
