I'm in south Africa so getting sand for ants locally is never gonna happen. Anyway...I want to use my own sand and bake it...how do I go about doing that?

You don't need to bake sand, just wash it well in cold water and strain it well until it is just damp.

We'll that way better. I just spoke with the pet shop owner again and he says what he does with his spider sand, he mixes in some sort of something that keep the sand moist for longer...which would be a good idea...but is this a good idea with ants? I literally waited a year for one queen...don't want her to die.
