In this weird news segment, Steve Stevens shares a surprising ant fact that changes the way many people think about pest control. According to an ant biology expert, squishing ants can make the problem worse because the insects release pheromones that signal the rest of the colony. The conversation explains how worker ants respond to that distress signal by rushing in to remove the body, which can quickly lead to more ants appearing in the same area. The segment also covers practical advice for dealing with ants, including gently removing them, blocking entry points, and wiping surfaces with lemon juice or vinegar. The discussion ends with a humorous admission that most people probably still won’t be gently relocating ants anytime soon. It’s a short, funny, and useful reminder that sometimes the simplest reaction is not the best one.
