Ants love coco pops

First off, no one has left one comment, 600 hits and not one bloomin comment. Even if its just out of pitty, gonna leave one.

I feel I'm making a real contribution to science here, I have now discovered that ants LOVE coco pops. By the looks of it they like coco pops more than they like strawberries.

I was heading to bed and decided to throw out the strawberry because it was going kinda fuzzy. So I cleaned out the tub and place 1 triple and 2 double coco pops just to see if they would eat them, I had read they only really like smooshy food.

In went for a pee and to brush my teeth then came back to this. They were swarming all over it… cool hu.


Update
I managed to get a photograph of robert, as you can see he is dead with his little and legs pointing up in the air. I cant get th body out, I'll need to borrow some tweezers or something. I'm sure all his buddies will miss him..... Brave lil guy.....

  • Hello, I'm from N Ireland and your daily report of your ants is very interesting! Icing on the cake are your very detailed & clear photos and some little movies!

    I have a Ant World which my sister has bought for her children so I'm helping out at the moment. Keep up good work!

  • Hi, I live in Scotland and I really like reading about your ant experiments. My teacher Mrs McKenzie is dead impressed that I know so much about what they like to eat - you must be really good at science at school!
    I love Coco Pops too :)

  • Just started an ant world today (first day I've found ants outside)! My word is fantastic. The ants have dug already and are currently amused by a piece of chocolate break! This could be the next big thing my freind. First Scotland, now England what next!! Probably Rentokill but lets hope it never comes to that. Keep up the good work!!

  • Hi, I live in Sydney and admire your photos. It's a lovely site - I'm not a big fan of ants & some of the other content on your page, but it's a great site, still.
