LaTex Fetish posted:i started keeping bees and it really surprised me that sometimes you just gotta murder the queen because she was poo poo. when that happens they just make their own new queen. How do you get the bees not to murder your poo poo when you commit regicide on them? Also why just squish her why not get like a tiny guillotine or something hardcore

Oh well, I'll post here as it will probably get more traffic Rhytidoponera metallica seems pretty difficult to keep, stings like a bitch, massive colonies and very aggressive. I managed to get a few drones out of a queen before it all went to poo poo. I did not have much success with Myrmecia either. Easily my holy grail of stinging things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myrmecia_(ant)

We live on this world not because we have conquered it and its denizens, but because we are tolerated--perhaps even cultivated--by the ants. It is they who rule us and we are too blind, too ignorant to even realize. It's a bug planet.

Yes! http://www.worldwatch.org/system/files/In%20Africa.pdf http://www.nature.com/ncomms/journal/v2/n3/full/ncomms1257.html it's pretty amazing. they basically use ants and termites to create pores in the soil to hold water, aerate it, and they also restore nitrogen to it.

I feel like I've lost an undetermined amount of I.Q after reading this thread. Especially after reading up about it. So this poo poo really is/was a thing? *shrugs* At least I got to see cool Ant pictures.
