My ants aren't doing anything

They've been in there 48 hours and just do sod all.

If you have one, when did the action start?

I tried poking them with a pencil this morning, but it all went horribly wrong.

6 of them ran up the pencil and escaped.

Caught 4, squashed one and one's gone AWOL :rolleyes:

Did you poke holes in the gel to start the tunnels off?

Are these garden ants or the "special ants"?

special, although they look identical to the buggers that keep digging up my lawn outside.

IIRC correctly there was an age-old post on the forums very simliar to this... the user replaced the ants with more agressive ones and the new ants ate the blue stuff for his entertainment...

yeah the more aggressive ones were the specials that you send away for. After reading that thread, I didnt bother with garden ones for that reason. They';re still doing bugger all though.

Biggest problem I had was getting the ants off the paper into the antworks. The trick was to refridgerate them for a bit but after I'd tried that and failed I ended up putting them in the freezer for *2 minutes*.

Two days later when I remembered them, they were a bit dead

Mine are all hiding in the paper. That's why I tried the prodding technique this monring which went wrong.
What am I supposed to do? Stick the whole thing in the fridge, wait for the to chill, then brush them off and take the paper out?

edit - murderer!

OMG kill them with fire!
