I hope at least. Most young kids i know actually are very enthusiastic about new insects. Granted, that is not everyone, but we need to promote ants the the younger generation.


Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8
