Hello everyone!

I'm 11 years old and come from Poland. I've kept ants for a few years. I also learn English. Could you recommend me some websites about ants in that language.

Have a great afternoon,

MyrmeLuna. :D

Welcome!

Honestly, this is one of the best places to learn about ant keeping. Read the Ant Keeping Guide for Beginners to start.

Probably the best in the ant keeping community. However, his images are unfortunately copyrighted, and have to be bought.

Does Alex Wild actually keep ants? That would be cool.

Another question, how do photographers get images of ants nesting in dirt or bark? Are they actually destroying the nests?

I was watching an ant documentary the other day, and they used this special light wavelength (forgot which one) to see inside the nest without opening it. I guess someone could do that and then add false color, like they do with SEM or TEM images.
