UK members will lose an hour in bed tonight as we put our clocks forward an hour. With the start of BST and now we have gone past Spring Solstice, the days are getting longer and warmer here in the Northern Hemisphere, meaning lighter evenings; and with April and May coming up fast so will the serious ant hunters begin to get out into the wild to search for ants.
Just remember not to decimate ant nests or take too many ants from one area, as this leads to wild ant populations being depleted; and by doing so is like a fisherman taking out all the fish from a lake, so although it is a big adrenalin rush to find nice big ant nests, please show a little restraint when collecting ants or any other forms of life for that matter.
Enjoy the summer everyone as it is said to be another scorcher when it gets going here in Britain.
