Q: Where can I find ants?
There are two options here. You can either get an adult to help you collect some ants from somewhere nearby, or you can order them online. If collecting ants yourself, be careful! Ant stings can be painful. If you'd rather order online, try this website. http://www.antsalive.com/antssupplies.htm
