What are the white bits
How panicked they are trying to save their babies. I’m too much of a bleeding heart. I’d put the slabs back down and leave them be.
Look, I never said I was smart, just soft lol
Brilliant
The bastards stole all your rice!!

Why did ya give em rice crispies. They will only want to stay now.
r/Entymology would dig this.
Black ants, harmless. If they were pismires, it’d be another story.
Leave them be. They’ll probably start a religion now about you
This is how I imagine Cavan to look like from above

That zoom out at the end took me by surprise. I was picturing a giant network under loads of slabs and then I see it’s only about 2ft square.
You are now a God like figure to them !!.. in a few months great great grandchildren of these guys will tell stories of you to their children
That’s so cool, be nice to them. You’re a giant higher dimensional sky monster that just tore the roof off thier world, be a nice sky monster.
You can fry up their eggs. Pretty tasty.
10/10 with rice
There must have been some amount of ridin’ going on before you turned up.
Let them live
That’s… A lot of larvae. I’m glad you put the rock back 😊
Ants are so cool
The end of a civilisation…

Mmm, so much rice!
Always impressive when you find a big nest. Could wtahc them for ages
My wife didn’t like ants in her herb garden and asked me to replace all the soil. I carefully explained why she was wrong and how the ants were beneficial.
The next day 3 pallets of fresh compost was delivered. She dug out all the planters and replaced the soil herself.
In her defence she has a great rack 🤷🏻♂️
Well you really fked their day 😂
Why are they stockpiling rice crispies
RETUURN THE SLAAAAABB!
Woah, very cool
Lazy shites, using the slabs as their roof

Why are you feeding them Rice Krispies? Everyone knows 9 out of 10 ants prefer Coco Pops.
Kinda of fascinating they way they’re all grabbing eggs and heading down below.
