LAB TOUR Part 2
The formicary
Here the ants are housed, fed and prepared for infection in the mass attack chambers. They are fed with water, sugar solution, crickets and meal worms. In winter, we add a special diet of amino acids and eggs to offset the poor conditions many colonies have faced outdoors.
