Mystery 'worker' ant
Saw this single ant on my shower wall at home this morning and it isn't one I'm familiar with (unless it's a VERY small Carpenter Ant???) so I'd like to learn its identity. I'm going to work on it today myself as well and maybe I'll be able to figure it out. It has just one node. And it was quick to feed on a "Cinnamon Oat Crunch Cheerio" that I gifted to it
