Clearly they're the ghosts of all the ants you've killed...

This was not a great time for a DIY solution. Next time just buy ant traps from a hardware or grocery store - easy game.

They are obviously ant sperm. Don't kill any female ants around the same area, or you will have a huge problem on your hands.

A google search reveals only flies have maggots? Ants have larvae? Does larvae crawl around?

Sperm move and are creatures, bud.

But I'm pretty sure ants leave their larvae in their ant mound/hill.

Ummmm....results? In my household we've used ant traps, which have been easy and effective and cost us about as much as a coffee and breakfast sandwich for a package of several.

I'm confused.. isn't ant bait and ant trap the same thing? You probably used the Terro Ant baits available in Walmart... I used the same mixture (borax and sugar) made at home... ?!

I finally managed to click a video of these creepy lil things:



They're running extremely fast close to the big black ants (not in video) who are also running pretty fast.. which seems abnormal
