FIRE ANTS vs SOIL: What happens when you introduce a massive, ravenous fire ant colony to a bin full of soil? Pure awesomeness! In this video, we watch as our favourite Fire Ant colony “The Fire Nation” moves into a bin full of soil called “The Fire Palace”. We observe the amazing tunnel work and constructions they make and witness what makes ants the best architects and designs Mother Nature has to offer. Visit us at

  1. Are you ever worried that one your colonies, the fire nation in particular, might accidentally break open from something? In the middle of the night a tube pop off somehow and the fire ants swarm your bed while you sleep? IDK, I just heard horrible stories of those ants' aggression levels.
