How to Find an Ant Colony
To locate an ant colony, observe areas with abundant vegetation, soil, or wood debris. Search for tiny holes or mounds, which may be the entrances to underground nests. Follow ant trails, narrow lines of ants moving in a consistent direction. Ants tend to gather near food sources or water, so check areas with sweet liquids, crumbs, or pet food. Observe their behavior; colonies often exhibit coordinated movements and communication.
