Pondering Ants

These ants are working so hard to eat what will kill off their entire colony. I learned a concoction of Borax, sugar and water years ago that works every time but I have to be patient. It takes a few days for this to reach the queen. Once it does she dies and so does the entire colony.

“When the queen ant dies, the colony dies, according to the “Smithsonian Zoogoer.” The death of the colony will not be immediate, but will slowly die off over time as no new members will be added.” (From scienceing.com)

What am I eating? What an I putting in my mind? Will it kill me too? That sugar solution tastes so good to them they choose it over my homemade food! What am I choosing?
