So what causes this simultaneous taking to the air, and is there really such a thing as flying ant day? Find out when and why ants grow wings and swarm.
Images Of Flying Ants
Flying ants are known as alates. In the UK, particularly in urban areas, the winged insects you see are almost always the sexually mature queens and males of the black garden ant, Lasius niger. The larger ants are the queens. They can be up to 15mm long.
Images Of Flying Ants
Flying ants are a common sight in the summertime, but they don’t actually fly. Their wings are used for balance and not for flight; the only time they use their wings is when they’re mating. Flying ants have four wings and two antennae. They can grow up to 1/2″ long.
Flying ants can be differentiated from other types of ants by looking at their color: flying ants are black with red or orange stripes on their abdomen. They also have two large compound eyes and three body segments. Their antennae are threadlike and their thorax is narrower than that of other ant species.
The texture of flying ants varies depending on where they live: most live in forests, where they live in leaf litter on the ground or under rocks or logs; some live in grasslands or deserts, which makes them more likely to be found above ground level (such as on tree trunks).
