Black ants are a type of insect that is classified in the kingdom animalia, they are insects that group together in one line of life. We rarely even find them walking alone but in groups which in one group usually reach a thousand or even more. Have you ever Seeing that ants can lift other dead insects that are bigger than them, yes of course that is an advantage of ants. Ants have greater strength compared to other insects. They are the strongest insects on earth for the small ones. Ants still have thousands of species with various shapes, living places and colors for these ants, that is, we mostly find them in rice fields or forest areas. In terms of size, these black ants are bigger than the ants in our homes or those that often eat sugar.

The life patterns of black ants and red ants are very different, for black ants they spend their time looking for food throughout their lives, while for red ants they tend to search for food throughout their lives, but red ants are more resourceful, namely when the food they are looking for is already there. enough to eat then they keep looking for it to store in the ground they have dug, from this we can know that red ants, even though their bodies are small, have better intelligence than black ants.

These black ants are not a threat to humans, they do not attack humans, even if we disturb them, they just run away in a scattering manner. Their favorite food is black ants, which often prey on yellow aphids located on cotton leaf trees.

All right everyone, I think that's enough for now with the discussion about ants. I hope this post can increase our knowledge about ants and hopefully it will be useful, thank you and see you.
