Black Ant
It's no picnic when the ants go marching one by one....into your sandwich.
Children, parents and educators will enjoy using these educational plush toys to teach about hygiene, disease, and the human body. Each microbe comes with a description of the disease it causes or function it performs. Use these fun, non-threatening toys to emphasize the importance of washing hands and preventing sickness in social settings. Petri Dish of 3 mini microbes. This is the commonest ant seen in North America and Britain. Workers (non-reproductive females) are blackish-brown in color and covered in small hairs. Winged reproductive females (queens) are almost twice as big as the workers, are darker in color and have a large pair of clear wings, which are shed after mating. Males also possess wings and are much smaller than queens. The larvae are legless grubs, and the pupae are protected inside a white silk cocoon. |
