he got 50 of 175 points  soon if more people respond (though they probably won't) with the magic of google forms imma post the overall score to see how knowledgeable the average 13 year old american is on ants and maybe some ant stereotypes (please point of if i got any info wrong lol)

I don't really like the question, "What are ant's favorite foods."  For some, or even most speces, this may be true, but my tetras refuse to touch anything sugary and instead love to eat dead insects, so I don't really think this is a good question.  I feel like they have to have a firm truth, or false, not like, "well, in my experience, this is true so this will be correct."

well, hopefully, by the end of the year, i can go around telling people i keep ants, bumblebees, wasps, and termites. (but if I have to choose it would be bumblebees)
