Getting ready for winter
Busy times as the ant community is getting ready for winter in the deep of the woods. 100 percent of the inhabitants work full tilt for the queen.
Queen fire ants fall into relatively long, deep sleeps and kip for an average of nine hours every day.
By contrast, workers sleep just half as much and get to rest by taking hundreds of short power naps.
This division of rest may help explain why queens live for years, while worker ants typically only live for months.
Try power naps, live healtier work more and think better.
