    One summer I followed a column of ants going from the corner of the front door down the stairs into the family room and around a corner. I could not believe it, it was like a regiment or something marching along in single file.

    Napalm.......now that just might do it........yup I gotta find some of that........
    I saw a program on PBS about ants and this behavior was photographed in minute detail. When the colony marching in a line encounters a hole in the leaf they are crossing or some kind of void in their path, some of the ants hold on to one another forming a live bridge for the others to traverse. Truly amazing to watch ~
