Step 6: With black paint and a toothpick, paint short, thin lines coming out from each of the ants - three lines on each side of each body. Paint another diagonal line of three dots in the upper left corner of the nail. Step 5: Using black paint to create the ants, in the lower right corner of the nail paint three small dots in a diagonal line. The top of this square should align with the bottom of the middle two. Step 4: Paint another small red square at the bottom middle of the nail. Make sure the corners of the squares touch. The bottom of this square should align with the top of the other two. Step 3: Paint a small red square at the top middle of the nail.
The squares should be of equal size, and they should align top to bottom. Step 2: To create the checkered pattern, paint two small red squares (one on each side of the nail).

You will need to set them free or they will eventually age and die.Īnts become fashionable in the next section. Keep in mind that an ant colony cannot survive or reproduce without a queen (who lives underground and is hard to catch), so your ants are probably worker ants. Give the ants a few bread crumbs every few days to eat, and only feed them when their food has been eaten.
You should only put in ants from the same colony, so try to catch all of your ants around the same location. Step 7: Catch ants outdoors and put them on top of the sand of your ant farm. Step 6: Cover the top of the jar with several layers of cheesecloth held in place with a rubber band. This forms a moat that will foil any ants that try to escape. Step 5: Set a block of wood in the middle of a pie pan and place the jar on top of it. Spoon the sand into the space between the cylinder and the jar. Step 4: Add water to sand until it is just barely moist.
Staple the ends together and put the cylinder into the jar. Step 3: Bend the strip of cardboard into a cylinder the same size as the mouth of the jar. Step 2: Measure the jar from the base to just below the shoulder and cut a long strip of cardboard that wide.
