This was an interesting perspective!
Also, I want to say, we do use ants to labour for us; something he describes in his post. Meat eating ants are used in museums to obtain clean bones for display purposes! You leave a dead rat and you come away with the cleanest rat skeleton you could produce in a matter of weeks.
It would be really nice if we could engage in more of these symbiotic relationships with them.
- unsupp0rted 3y agoWhat do they do with the ants after the bone is clean?
- sliken 3y agoI've had ants in the kitchen, tiny and not particularly noticeable. They'd keep the kitchen floor clean and I'd not kill them. I had always hoped that they would keep any other ants and termites out of the house. I do wish I could communicate and give them a 5 pound bag of sugar periodically to help entire other bugs and food debris stay out of the house.
