Amazing Art or?

Wow! :)

Both to the ingenuity of the ants and the creativity of the researchers...
 
Interesting to check out some of the other videos and look at the different structures for different species of ant - it sort of makes sense that winter ants would go deep and have a big chamber where they can cluster together.
 
With the number of fire ant hills here in Texas, I can see where you could make some real money off the art work and farmers would beg you to come remove nests from their property.

But how expensive is a portable forge, to say nothing of the pounds of Aluminium you'd need - per nest.
 
Watching the few ants escaping during the pouring process I had a half second of pity for the poor things. Then I remembered the ongoing pain of a fire ant bite, and there's never just one bite. When I lived in Texas it seemed like they were intent on covering my back yard with mounds. And they always came back, it seemed like whatever I used, home remedy or store bought, a new mound started up right away. Damed invaders, they would swarm out aggressively when disturbed. Now I live far North of their range and wonder how long before they become cold and freeze hardy enough to get up here.

The prices charged for those sculptures is plenty high enough to pay for the time and materiel.

There was a video on making a forge from an old charcoal burner and a hand held type blow dryer. Scrap aluminum is easy to come by. If not, there are plenty of soda and beer cans.

ETA: I looked up the prices on a few pieces. Between 4,000 and 5000 dollars. :eek:

When I lived in the South, I used Amdro and wiped out the nests in my yards. I did have some new nests, but only until I got my neighbors to use Amdro. I had a nest about two feet tall in my back yard and it took three tries, but I finally wiped out all of the fire ants in the nest and demolished the nest.
 
They should do this to people. Be great art and help rid the planet of its most destructive inhabitant.
