I do similar at a park near my home! We are on year three as well! Any time I have leftovers I try to set a little aside for them. I'm careful to not feed them too often in case they get overwhelmed with food and it may mold.
The colour variety on the Queen's is truly incredible! I never would have expected it from looking at the colours of the workers. How is it you get such amazing footage of them!? Lots of the support from the UK here! #antloveforever
Superworms: He's been going on about these ants for over eight minutes, I think we're in the clear- Mikey: We've now come to the moment you've all been waiting for... Superworms: *Why do I hear boss music?* The background music: *HALLELUJAH!*
After you put the drop of Maple Syrup next to the weaver ants, I love how one of them just looked at the syrup for a few seconds, then seemed to look directly at the camera. Almost as if it say "What am I supposed to do with this?"
8:43 "We've now come to the moment you've been waiting for." I was so wrapped up in learning about the weaver ants that I forgot I was even waiting for that moment😭
It was at that moment my daughter asked to have a nappy on, even though she had been perfectly silent the whole time.. and I ended up missing the whole exchange.. Ended up having to rewind once I had escaped her view.. Typical timing as always
I have a whole kingdom of carpenter ants in my frontyard, and I have been feeding them and checking up of them from time to time, thier nest is so big now from last time I've seen the nest Update:THE ANT KINGDOM IS HUGE NOW, ITS AS BIG AS CAR WHEELE, AND THERE IS SO MANY NEW ANTS, OMFG IM SO HAPPY THAT MY FIRE ANTS ARE FINALLY SOLVED, HAVENT SEEN A FIRE ANT FOR DAYS NOW
I can't find myself liking carpenter ants much locally, knowing they are some of the ants that might end up eating my house. X.x i don't go out of my way to kill them, i just don't have the heart to feed them.
Dude, imagine being that guy who first discovered weaver ants. You see a strange mass of leaves in the woods, and suddenly notice hundreds of ants crawling out of it. xD I think weaver ants are among my favorite ants. And I especially love their beautiful queens. It was amazing seeing the ants form that barrier of ants around the worm to hold it in place.
Gotta love your videos! I'm currently watching this in the basement, we had a tornado last night. This really helped me feel better about the situation. Also, don't worry, it didn't hit us. I just heard tornado sirens going off, no destruction. It's all ok.
Weaver ant: What's this? Mikey: Canadian maple syrup! Weaver ant: *Do I look like I'm a Canadian to you?* As great as Canadian maple syrup is, Vermont's maple syrup is a worthy opponent
3:55 lol She's looking at you like, "What do you want me to do with THAT?" This might be the first time I've noticed that those we are watching are watching us.
I'm not one to write a comment but I just wanted to see if anyone else could see the heart shape the Weaver ants have created on their nest at 5:36 I love my ant's and I also love this channel thank you for your amazing videos
I saw a video, I think on Monster Bug Wars, where a weaver ant nest was blown into a paper wasp nest by a storm! I've been in love with weaver ants ever since... and 2 ant videos later was the 1st AntsCanada video I ran into! :)
I mean, of course his French isn't bad, he's Canadian, depending on where you live in Canada, you learn either English or French as your first language
@@charizardfan1017 he's asian, who went to live in Canada where he started this AntCanada channel, then came back home to his asian country.. and now continuing his channel with mostly asian native ants.😊
@@charizardfan1017 Haha he is filipino. He can't buy land in the Philippines if he is not a citizen. Or maybe he's got dual citizenship... but he is a well known showbiz petsonality here in our country.
this is super cool this is why i luv this channel i used to be scared of bull ants no joke until i started watching you i started watching them with a different opinion
Here in the Philippines, we call them Antiks cause they're always in some sort off antics and are always in our mango, rambutan or any fruit bearing trees
Those are amazing ants indeed. Last time I saw them was at the shore of Lake Begnas in Nepal, some years ago. Here at home I only have a Crematogaster ionia colony on my balcony to feed. 🙂
Hope you show some footage on how you accomplish moving some of your tanks? Into the new house. And maybe come up with some new ideas and how to move fish tanks better.
I have found quite a bit of fire ant nests and multiple different colors of ants I actually found a Marauder ant colony well just one in Tennessee in my backyard.
I have a little fatsia tree on the balcony and there seem to be a colony nearby who likes to use it to chill in. At any given time there's generally a few ants just chillin' in the folds.
Honestly, your videos don't make me want to keep ants, moreso then pay more attention to their a tivities around me. Recently, I've had a colony of Australian red meat ants pop up in my back yard... hella aggressive, but fascinating. Thank you for continuing to open peoples eyes to the world around them.
Hi antscanada, I have a video suggestion for you. I was wondering about springtails and I managed to get one group(I don’t know what else to say). I would love if you make a video about the information about springtails.(what to buy, how to care, etc..) Thanks!
this month, I manage to capture 3 queens. a slender ant and 2 carpenter ants. I release the slender ant outside and release the carpenter ants on my desk. The nest is somewhere in my desk.
I have a pheidole colony at my backyard i always check on em and feed them to survive they even are taked over the fire ant colony every time im gone i feed em alot
I love how he can turn what normally is mundane into an action packed adventure
Forget horror movies, this guy is the king of suspense
That's honestly my favourite thing about this channel
@@aliciabates821 He constantly acts like it is unbelievable... even if it isn't, its very gripping and entertaining
And thats why I still remember to watch him
Been keeping a colony next to my porch of carpenters and they have survived there 3rd winter and are looking good and strong with substantial growth 😀
Wow you are taking care of a colony in your own way that's amazing!
👍🏻
Amazing! Im getting my first queen ant soon! She is a Camponotus discolor :)
I do similar at a park near my home! We are on year three as well! Any time I have leftovers I try to set a little aside for them. I'm careful to not feed them too often in case they get overwhelmed with food and it may mold.
Wow
I died when the ant at 3:55 looked straight into the camera, it was so cute!!!
I can see it smiles and say 'cheese'😁
What if that was a warning. 👀
As a Canadian, there's just something so incredibly funny about maple syrup being referred to as exotic 😄
Those asian ants must think it's indeed exotic.. there are no maple trees in Asia, and the foreign smell might not be too enticing.
Didn't even think of that lol. We are so blessed
Yeah same
Just need to water it down a bit, or take it to sugar for them to recognize it as the rocket fuel it is lol
The colour variety on the Queen's is truly incredible! I never would have expected it from looking at the colours of the workers. How is it you get such amazing footage of them!?
Lots of the support from the UK here!
#antloveforever
As another person from the UK I agree with this
Skillz thats how lol and probably a lot of patience
I like ur name "That one cool ant lover"
I actually have a lot of mango trees around, and there are usually 2-3 weaver ant nests per branch, honestly amazing
they do pack quite a sting.
They don't have a sting?
@@pilot_bruh576 they bites
@@pilot_bruh576 the acid and bites "sting"
How long they been living there to have that many separate nests?
@@hrsh_nk56 well I'm not a genius how am I gon know that?
Superworms: He's been going on about these ants for over eight minutes, I think we're in the clear-
Mikey: We've now come to the moment you've all been waiting for...
Superworms: *Why do I hear boss music?*
The background music: *HALLELUJAH!*
😶
LOL
Kim Jong-un?!
After you put the drop of Maple Syrup next to the weaver ants, I love how one of them just looked at the syrup for a few seconds, then seemed to look directly at the camera. Almost as if it say "What am I supposed to do with this?"

The Weaver ant winged queens are spectacular in color. I just dropped a tear.
When the Ant turned to the camera it was so cute! 3:53
i was gonna say that
I think weaver ants might be my favorite
8:43 "We've now come to the moment you've been waiting for." I was so wrapped up in learning about the weaver ants that I forgot I was even waiting for that moment😭
It was at that moment my daughter asked to have a nappy on, even though she had been perfectly silent the whole time.. and I ended up missing the whole exchange..
Ended up having to rewind once I had escaped her view..
Typical timing as always
It was at that moment that i remember i still have to put food scraps on the path of the ants that has their colony on my backyard.
Thats just 99% of his videos
My favorite scene of this episode. 3:55. The weaver ant looks so cute! ☺️🧡
Couldn't agree more, theres so much personality in these ants and it's adorable!!
Seconding that, the maple syrup scene is just smile inducing
Yeah cute i wouldn't use that word on an ant with jaw open ready to kill anything on its path
It’s like a puppy that got caught doing something it shouldn’t have lol
I WANT TO PET IT
I have a whole kingdom of carpenter ants in my frontyard, and I have been feeding them and checking up of them from time to time, thier nest is so big now from last time I've seen the nest
Update:THE ANT KINGDOM IS HUGE NOW, ITS AS BIG AS CAR WHEELE, AND THERE IS SO MANY NEW ANTS, OMFG IM SO HAPPY THAT MY FIRE ANTS ARE FINALLY SOLVED, HAVENT SEEN A FIRE ANT FOR DAYS NOW
Wow
Yes
I can't find myself liking carpenter ants much locally, knowing they are some of the ants that might end up eating my house. X.x i don't go out of my way to kill them, i just don't have the heart to feed them.
Wow so lucky I want to have a colony of ants but I don't have the money to do it I can totally understand though and relate so wow
I have curpenter ants in my house
Weaver ants are my favorite ants
That shot of the lone ant looking at the camera is so cute
I love the coloring of Weaver ant queens
The ants look so cute when seeing them this close up.
That close maybe , but do not zoom in 😬
Dude, imagine being that guy who first discovered weaver ants. You see a strange mass of leaves in the woods, and suddenly notice hundreds of ants crawling out of it. xD
I think weaver ants are among my favorite ants. And I especially love their beautiful queens. It was amazing seeing the ants form that barrier of ants around the worm to hold it in place.
I have 8 weaver ant nests in my tree
Gotta love your videos! I'm currently watching this in the basement, we had a tornado last night. This really helped me feel better about the situation.
Also, don't worry, it didn't hit us. I just heard tornado sirens going off, no destruction. It's all ok.
Stay safe. Wish you luck!
Stay safe wish you luck
Good it didnt hit- AntsCanada is a good way to make ya feel better. I watch these videos late at night if im not feeling well
The tornado reading this: well now! No destruction you say? Let's fix that.
@@TobValHjerte yeah! I use ants Canada as comfort videos lol
Weaver ant: What's this?
Mikey: Canadian maple syrup!
Weaver ant: *Do I look like I'm a Canadian to you?*
As great as Canadian maple syrup is, Vermont's maple syrup is a worthy opponent
Watching these videos really shows the value of an Ant and it's Entire colony/Hardwork...
Man, I love the way weaver ant look to the cam! So funny, kisses from Brazil bro, I'm a big fan. 🙌🏽
Wow, I stopped watching your videos, came back to them and they're still really cool! Thanks for introducing me into the world of ant-keeping, Mikey!
Exact same here
Me2
Me too😃😃😃
I did not know that was his name
@@hool8896 He is Mikey Bustos☺️
Can u make an update on the camponotus/colobopsis colony,the crematogaster colony and the slender ant queen ?
Weaver ants are definitely my favorites! Though those blue ants are a very very close 2nd. So beautiful are their queens!
This guy is awesome. He is changeing my life to care more about ants.
@3:53 I can't get enough of that clip where that single ant looked into the camera. I need it to be my wallpaper now!
AMAZING! Love watching these Mikey!!!
True
You sound so much happier talking about your house. Awesome
3:46
The way the Ant looked at the camera
3:54 a glorious moment
I love everyone of your shows! Keep em coming!
I'm so glad you did this. It's so awesome!
3:55 lol She's looking at you like, "What do you want me to do with THAT?" This might be the first time I've noticed that those we are watching are watching us.
Hahaha! That ant right before the cut away from the Canadian Maple syrup. Absolute cutest!!!!
Just LOVE the Weaver ants! They are so interesting to watch.
Wow, another video about the amazing weaver ants, I’m so excited to see how this goes! I’ve wanted to see a reproductive alate for a long, long time!
3:55 I like how the weaver ant just looked at the camera after seeing the maple syrup
She's like. "What are you trying to do here ocidental?
I recently Got a colony of these guys they are so awesome 😊I live in Australia so they are native in my country
Woah I've been waiting for your video ants Canada! It took a lot of time, work, and effort and we appreciate waiting for this!
WOW! This really drove me to the edge of my seat, keep it up!!
Duuude I have been watching this channel since I think 2015 or 2014. Your content has really grown!
You should write a documentary. Lol, it would be the most suspenseful documentary on the planet
Forget horror movies, this guy is the king of suspense
I'll never be bored when watching your videos.
I'm not one to write a comment but I just wanted to see if anyone else could see the heart shape the Weaver ants have created on their nest at 5:36 I love my ant's and I also love this channel thank you for your amazing videos
Your amazing documentation of these amazing creatures is truly top notch, worthy to be featured in National Geographic!
This is why I love ants they are sooooooo cute when they work together
Weavers are among the more intelligent ants I’ve seen, the way they perk up their heads to look at the camera. It’s really adorable.
The ant mugging for the camera at 3:55 actually made me laugh out loud.
Cant wait to see a weaver nest at the center of the building. Or a towering tank you can look down from above.
I saw a video, I think on Monster Bug Wars, where a weaver ant nest was blown into a paper wasp nest by a storm! I've been in love with weaver ants ever since... and 2 ant videos later was the 1st AntsCanada video I ran into! :)
C'est clairement une espèce de fourmis incroyable , j'apprécierais tôt ou tard les observer également :) , ton Français est pas mal haha

*it’s to appreciate the little things in life.* 🙂
this is super cool this is why i luv this channel i used to be scared of bull ants no joke until i started watching you i started watching them with a different opinion
F to the maple syrup
Here in the Philippines, we call them Antiks cause they're always in some sort off antics and are always in our mango, rambutan or any fruit bearing trees
Those are amazing ants indeed. Last time I saw them was at the shore of Lake Begnas in Nepal, some years ago. Here at home I only have a Crematogaster ionia colony on my balcony to feed. 🙂
3:54 i never thought i would even say this.. but that was actually really cute
Hope you show some footage on how you accomplish moving some of your tanks?
Into the new house.
And maybe come up with some new ideas and how to move fish tanks better.
can you make more carpenter ant videos
Saw my first couple of nuptial flights this week!!
To me the coolest thing about those queens is that they still have wings, usually they just rip them off, instead all those queens still had them.
Weaver ants are SO. COOL. Fascinating!!
Legit this reminded me of the emerald empire
We need an update on the termites
Keep up the good work Mikey!
The way the ant got spooked by the camera at 3:53 was hilarious and cute
The ants are so damn cute when they are looking to the camera I can't.
Another week another amazing ant species.
Antscanada should make a gaming second ant channel and name it antsgaming and try empire of the undergrowth
I love empires of the undergrowth so i agree
there is so much going on in the ant world that i find it really intresting
Hey Antscanada i have an idea try to put a food next to ant when she was going to tell others remove the food see what happens🙂
I cant wait till you move into your new home
I have found quite a bit of fire ant nests and multiple different colors of ants I actually found a Marauder ant colony well just one in Tennessee in my backyard.
My favourite ant species is the weaver ants. They are so cute especially the queen.
This is really good
I cant wait to see this colony! Truly exciting to see the growth of this channel
The weaver ants are one of my favorite kind of ants.
I like how the one ant looks at the syrup, then straight into the camera like “what the heck do you expect me to do with this?!”
damn i wanna be one of those weaver ants, they sound like theyre living the life 😂
I like to call Weaver Ants "The Builders"
COC
I think directly feeding native colony ants is the best option
I have a little fatsia tree on the balcony and there seem to be a colony nearby who likes to use it to chill in. At any given time there's generally a few ants just chillin' in the folds.
3:50 too exotic for you eee
*The look that ant gave*what did you say🧐🤨😂😂😂😂😂😂

Whoa! Those weaver ant queens are legitimately majestic! So beautiful!
Right???!!!

the ending was just a master piece
I love this guy almost as much as David Attenbrough.
I think that’s how you spell his name😹
Wow I'm a huge fan
Me too
Me too
I have a pheidole colony at my backyard i always check on em and feed them to survive they even are taked over the fire ant colony every time im gone i feed em alot
You have a really cool channel - I know you can't wait for your new place to be ready - you earned it. Congratulations on this massive success!!
I fed the Canadian ants outside in my yard some maple syrup, and they loved it.I guess even ants have nationalities
Hi #AC ,I want to suggest "Antasia " for the section next to Antopia . I think you're awesome btw! Can't wait to see the house finished
How about "Anotosasia"?
In my opinion it sounds better
I was word playing on "Fantasia" ,but thanks for the feedback 👍
I’m so glad I came across your fire ants trying to escape video all those years ago, it brought me on an amazing journey through out the years😁
