John keeping it real... and the containers clean to prevent colony contamination. |
Jack Ryan extracting his queen for isolation. |
Observations: with the queen removed from the colony, the other ants show signs of aggression. |
Group members put their positive control to test. With a few adjustments, it works well. |
The physical barrier does a great job preventing the ants from going down the path. 2min and 35secs later, the ants found a way around their barrier and thus set their positive control. |
The back side of the physical barrier. |
Another group watches their positive control to see if the ants will eat the gmelina leaves. |
Gmelina leaves are being cut by the ants (notice the half moon cuts in the bottom right corner of the leaf). Positive control is ready. |
