Any thoughts on this topic? I currently have a large kitchen flood light on in my anting area that provides both lighting and heat to my ants between 7am and 7pm everyday. All of the ants have areas in their living arrangements where they can hide from the light if they so desire. feeding areas are in the light. Naturally when the light goes off temperatures fall for the ants a few degrees. From about 84F to 80F which is the temperature I have my garage office set to maintain.
just curious what others do and what temperatures in particular are good for southern california desert ants.
