In nearly every corner of the Earth, ants wage war against each other. Their weapons are what nature gave them. Some have strong armour, deadly stingers or sharp mandibles. And then there is this tiny, and not very impressive ant. But it rules the biggest empire any ant has ever built. A colony spanning continents and fighting wars that leave millions of casualties. Let’s take a look at this unlikely warrioress: Linepithema humile, the Argentine ant.

Best yet by cedarside completely wipes out all Argentine ants and their eggs entire swaths of colonies of Argentine ants can be completely obliterated by just using a natural chemical produced by cedarside Best yet Argentine ants are nothing you can wipe them out in a month all of them all over Canada all over California all over South America they don't stand a chance natural cedar oil kills all of it makes their eggs fall apart turns it into mush

Argentine ants philospher be like : Tho for 1 of the army died,10 more replace them,we are expendables,they are not , some are drawn from colony fame for their soldiers and more we're drawn from unknown colony that only the queen can save them,1 army is none but a million can make a change and a army never alone,while we draw breath we will fight till the last of our ants

Thoese ants suck, once they bite you they leave a awfull smell. Also they get you unaware. You might be chilling in short pants nice and smooth. Then you feel one bite, you look down and oh well, a lot of ants, they wait until there are a good amount on your leg before starting to bite.
