Magnolia Park in Apopka is crawling with ants, I intend on going some time soon.

Ants are small creatures... but together... they can rule the world.

It honestly doesn't look good, especially for our natives. There are much better places to go in the area for better ants.

Did you blacklight in the national forest or in town? I'm sure you could have gotten more.
