    The ants will just re-colonize somewhere.

    Better to bring your aluminum to the junk shop and sell it por-kilo!

    Will they? I would think that somewhere in the middle of the aluminum is the queen ant and her soldiers and workers, all suffered a molten death.

    Pouring a barrel of insecticide might be cheaper.

    Its not meant to kill ants. More of creating a decorative art piece.

    May nauuna pa ata dati, pero cement ginamit niya and mas madami and for science yun, anlaki yung cast ng colony na lumabas yung hinukay nila.

    Ngayon for art na lang wala talaga magawa mga ibang tao.

    sa ilalim ng mound eh network of nests so marami ring queen. at ang langgam parthenogenic. kaya niyang mag reproduce without male. yun nga lang yung offspring niya puro lalake lang tapos mabubugok yung colony kasi walang queen. pero yung lalake aalis ng colony niya para sa mate so baging colony kaya tulad ng sabi ni ser LSB mag re-colonize sila.
    kup*l yang mga langgam. sila kumakatay sa mga tenebrio molitor larvae at pupae ko!

    ha ha ha! Alam mo yung nakukuha sa talahib na parang may bilog bilog sa spike? My best friend and I used to "harvest" those as children tapos binabato namin sa mga tao while the bus is moving. One time we threw it on a guy then the traffic slowed down. We got a good sermon

    ^ah oo, hahaha!
    sticker bush? masakit yan!
    pag napapadaan ako ng naka bike o naglalakad sa ganiyan, ang hirap tanggalin niyan sa salawal o medias.
    mag-iingat kapa pag tatanggalin mo dahil for sure matutusok ka din. haha!
    ginagawa naman namin diyan pag ka kuha, idinidikit namin sa kuwelyo. hihihi!
    ang saya niyan kitty!
