I guess Im thinkin of those ants in the black and white science fiction films from the 60s. laugh But haven't you ever seen them carrying like a gigantic leaf or something in those jaws? Im saying like "if" they were as large as men, couldn't they do some damage with those pinchers? happy

Perhaps the yellow was stickier and stuck to their legs more. Who knows.

I have this huge red ant hill in my yard that I am going to put corn meal on and record the results with my digital camera and make a web page showing the results.

I have only used corn meal on one small ant hill and within a week or two it was gone. But that was a small ant hill.

This one is massive and has been in operation for years. It will be interesting to see what happens. I will post a link to the pictures for anyone interested in the experiment of using corn meal to get rid of ants.

I'll probably feel remorse about it, but oh well. They will be going to ant heaven. Pray for them. bigsmile

Here is the address to page where the ant slaughter will proceed. I am sorry I don't have a camera that can get close enough to record the look on their tiny little faces when they start exploding. Besides, that happens underground anyway.

If the experiment works, I may take a shovel and dig down to see what I can see.

You can buy an 8 pound bag for a couple bucks at Home Depot, etc. It's not poisonous, but it will kill ants and most other insects.

Thanks Spider. I will see if my local hardware store has any. I don't live anywhere near a Home Depot.

I too have remorse for all living things. I eat meat also though. I catch bugs in the house and set them free outside because my remorse gets to me.

It just shows the respect for life, all life.

I justify my eating meat with the natural order of life. Some animals become food for others.



yep even were food to others at times, idont think they put any thought into it per se' when the tables are turned - it is just a fact of life.



Yes, it is the natural order of life. We can be food for others also. Actually, even in death we are food for the little critters if we are buried.

I hate to watch the hunt on the nature shows though, I feel for the hunted still..lol


This is a good point. Humans have always been consumed by other carnivores, especially in our early history. My guess is that until we had a handle on creating fire ourselves (not just hoping for lightning and preserving it) we were constantly being attacked and drug off by wolves, bears, leopards, anything that ate meat. Fire and weapons would have changed that trend but before we had this, probably a lot of screaming and running away. :tongue:

A few years back, my brother caught a field mouse in the basement wash sink. Since it was the middle of winter & the mouse was wet, my brother and sister-in-law bought a cage for it and kept it as a pet. Their rat terrier, Foxie, would sit in front of the cage for hours. She would just watch the mouse. Never tried to do anything.

Anyways, the mouse past away. They ended up replacing the mouse with another mouse so, Foxie would have her pet!

Rat terrier huh? Ya know those guys have been bred for centuries in England to go after rats, thus the name. Did yours like to dig impulsively?

Foxie's not mine. I don't think she had a bad habit of digging, but I honestly do not know for sure. I know German Sheppards have that tendency as well.

Yeah, I have heard that they were born to hunt rodents. In fact, they tails are strong enough to literally pull them by the tail to get out of dangerous situations such as being stuck in a hole with a dangerous critter!

P.S.
Foxie may not be mine but, she is my favorite canine niece - especially since she is ever so sassy to my brother. hehehehehehehehe:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

p.s. II
My brother is a great guy, but he is my little brother who use to drive me batty.:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Yeah. I have a couple of livestock guardian dogs and its amazing how those instincts (whatever they have been bred to do) they just do it. It takes very little training. They kind of take possession of whatever animal they are there to guard.
