    AC Family, thanks so much for watching! When it rains, it pours... QUEEN ANTS! So what's your guess? How many of these queens are fertilized? Hope you remember to hit LIKE, SHARE the video, and SUBSCRIBE (hit the BELL and select ALL) if you enjoyed this episode! Ant love forever! Xoxo

    It’s amazing how I still find nuptial flights so fascinating even after seeing them so many times on this channel! The prospect that every single one of those queens could create an entire colony is so mind blowing!

    Searched up carpenter ants hoping to find a video by you! I recently found a queen carpenter ant who had recently shed her wings and was ready to lay eggs soon while she was looking for a good nesting place. I noticed that one of her front legs were upside down for whatever reason and it was getting stuck in her other legs, making it harder for her to walk. In the past, I had a phase of wanting an ant farm, but never found a queen or figured out an ant type, so I saw this as an opportunity to use the variety of ant keeping stuff my uncle bought when he kept ants and gave to me after he stopped (Coincidentally, he bought it from your website). I decided to take her in and my uncle helped me set up a test tube for her to lay eggs in. I’ve had her for about a week now just in my closet and she is doing great! I searched this up so I could find you to learn more about how to care for her! Thanks!

      It’s not a spider, if it was the spider bites wouldn’t hurt. However, if the spider was bigger/a tarantula (which does pack a painful bite), he would’ve felt the individual legs crawling on his arms. A centipede goes by the same knowledge as well. I’m guessing a wasp, bee or a katydid.

    Question of the week:
    As you said you mistook it for a male ant, I’d guess it is a small insect with wings. And it was not a sting, but a bite, so I’ll say TERMITE!

  • @deathtotruthers1

    I think the answer to the question of the week - what bit you - is a centipede.

    This cottage experience is going to give you a clue regarding living in the Ant House, except you'll have the luxury of a modern, typical city home (in the posh end of town lol), with all of the expected utilities, but with the forest a few steps outside.
    Btw, did this nuptial flight give you the same idea it gave me? Find a suitable place near to, but not surrounding the immediate vicinity of the Ant House (you don't want to attract wild ants, especially ones like fire ants into or on the outside walls of your home! Imagine if they got inside!), where you can hang some lights, perhaps including black/ultraviolet lights, which will attract insects each time you switch them on. It might be the easiest way to capture queens of species you don't even know are in the area.
    What made me think of this was when you showed the light of your camera, I had a flashback to a science series on the BBC. It was either Sir David Attenborough or Prof Brian Cox (it's possible they've both done it!). In the one I'm thinking of, they were in a rain forest to film the local invertebrate life, but they weren't having much luck during the day. Then they met a "lone" scientist at the hostel (or wherever it was - it was inside the forest and designed for scientific studies), not part of a typical team, who worked at night.
    He told them to put up a white sheet and a blue light, in the dark, and hang around for a few minutes. The sheet had dozens of mostly flying invertebrates, including stick insects IIRC, of many species in no time! Just think, out where there's no artificial light interfering with the blue light, you could be discovering a ton of species you didn't know we're there, queens on nuptial flights and maybe new species! What do you think?
