Any suggestions on what these harvester ants might like?  They love the proteins I give them, and they love Sunburst Ant Nectar, but I haven't cracked the code re anything else.  I've tried so many other items, grains, breads, fruits, fish flakes, etc.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
