Queen Weaver Ants (Oecophylla Smaragdina)

Description

Ants weavers – Oecophylla Smaragdina

The weaver ants make their nest from leaves sewn with the silk produced by their larvae. They are found in the trees, on a perched height. The weaver ant colonies are founded by a female, the queen, who lays her first string of eggs on a leaf and protects them until they become mature workers. The workers will then build leaf nests. Colonies can be extremely large, consisting of more than a hundred nests covering many trees and containing more than half a million workers. In 25 g bags, Next-Food offers them to confirmed entomophages and to those seeking discovery or challenge.
