Deby Cassill in 2009 broke with tradition and calls certain periods of rest in ants sleep.. Working with fire ants, she videotaped ants in an artificial nest. She created an artificial colony with three queens, 30 workers and 30 larvae. Checking the posture and position of the antennae, she concluded that queens sleep 90 times per day for 6 minutes per nap, whereas workers dosed 250 times per day for roughly one minute at a time.
Carpenter ants eat a variety of foods, including dead insects, the sweet honeydew exuded by aphids and some other insects, plant juices, and sweet or fatty foods in the home.Ants go without food for up to six months during their winter dormancy, but at other times require food and water.arpenter ants are large. Queens are usually about 3/4 inch long, and workers vary from 1/4-1/2 inch. Only carpenter ants which fly to establish new colonies have wings. Several differently colored carpenter ants are found in Washington.
