Ants are important ingredient to biodiversity health. They’re food for so much wildlife. As well as soil mineral cyclers due to their Deep soil  mining. Our sheep love to munch at ant hill mounds as it’s direct access to minerals they need that ants have brought up from deep underground.  Ant hills are now a rare thing on many Irish farms because of the way many farm.
