My paranoia has now reached a new high! No I'm not sure - though I have
not noticed the ants elsewhere I will now be paying extra attention. I
do appreciate the info that the ants _can_ colonize in such artificial
conditions, since I normally associate them with forming colonies in the
soil and did not know how realistic it might be for them to invade a glider.
