Here is a picture of the pitiful little home we have for these ants. They have yet to eat, but maybe they do not eat right away upon waking for spring, or maybe I have the wrong food. I am still researching. Not many people want carpenter ants as guests in their home!

If they survive a couple more days I will find them a little more suitable dwelling place. We have enjoyed observing them today and the blessings began journal pages on them as well.
