Hi. I have just invented this, and it is very very popular among my ants. All you do is dissolve three teaspoons of sugar in one whisked, raw egg and you're done! Please try it with your ants, all of mine love it. Post the results here. Thanks.

Well, My parents hate my ants so they wouldn't be too excited about me trying this, but it sounds like it should work, just be mindful about molding.

If you put it on something watertight and take it out after a day or too then it shouldn't mould. If you don't want to use a whole egg, you could take a little next time a member of your family uses one.

Well, My parents hate my ants... Indeed. Makes keeping ants much harder, and making my fairly horrible videos even harder.

I am going to try it with my solenopsis tommorow. I am having a fairly hard time with this colony as far as food goes. They seem to only take live prey and are starting to ignore the honey water I am giving them.
