Some simple techniques helpful in ant research

E J Godzińska et al. Acta Neurobiol Exp (Wars). 1991.

Abstract

Eight simple techniques which may be helpful in ant research are presented. They facilitate: (1) collecting ground-nesting ants; (2) prompting ants to go out of their nest chambers; (3) introducing ants into a test tube; (4) recapturing ants during their mass escape in the laboratory; (5) keeping tidy foraging areas of artificial ant nests; (6) keeping high level of air humidity in foraging areas of artificial ant nests; (7) providing ants with water of improved quality; (8) cleaning artificial ant nests carved in plaster of Paris.
