Understanding Ants

This social insect belongs to the Formicidae family and tends to live in large, underground colonies. Today, there are more than 12,000 species of ants, but it is believed that there could be more than 14,000 species. Ants can be easy to identify thanks to their unique appearance, bodies, and antennas.

While they prefer staying outside, ants will travel inside when searching for food. They can travel hundreds of feet away from their nest to look for food.
