Phenological characteristics of solar terms in ant manor in autumn equinox

The characteristics of ant manor in the autumn equinox solar terms are group competition, looking for a warm place and hatching new queens. The relevant contents are as follows:

1. Group competition: busy with food, competing with other ant groups. At the autumn equinox, plants begin to wither and fruits mature, which is also an important food source for ants. Ants will become busier, collecting fruits, nectar and other foods and storing them for use in winter. The autumnal equinox is also a time when ants compete for resources.

2. Find a warm place: As the weather gets cold, ants will find a warm place to avoid the cold. They may enter the interior of the building, looking for cracks, hiding places or warm underground caves.

3. Incubate new queens: The autumnal equinox is also the time when ants hatch new queens. Queen ants usually lay eggs in this season to ensure that a new generation of ants can hatch smoothly next spring. Ants will also take some defensive measures to prevent cold air and humid environment from invading their nests. This includes repairing the entrance of the bird's nest and strengthening heat preservation measures.

Information about ants

1, prepare for wintering and take defensive measures: the autumnal equinox also means that winter is coming, and ants prepare enough food and resources to spend the cold winter. During the autumnal equinox, the food demand of ants will also change. In summer, ants mainly look for high-sugar foods, such as fruits and honeydew. In autumn, as the temperature drops, ants begin to look mainly for high-protein foods.

2. Reduce the activity frequency: As the temperature drops, the activity frequency of ants may decrease. They will slow down their actions to save energy and resources and ensure their survival. In summer, ants thrive and move frequently, often in small caves on the ground. In autumn, ants begin to enter the reserve period and nest deep underground to prepare for winter dormancy.

3. The solar terms of ants in the autumnal equinox mainly include the reduction of reproduction and activities, the change of food demand and the change of behavior. These changes are to adapt to the climate and environmental changes in autumn and ensure that ants can survive the winter smoothly and continue to survive. As food becomes scarce, different ant groups may conflict and compete for limited resources.
