I had to send in an Angel of Death to kill my pet ants. My supercolony of yellow crazy ants, called the Golden Empire, have been gravely infected by parasitic blood-sucking #mites, and our last hope to save them lay in the results of a critical #experiment where we tested to see if predatory Hypoaspis mites, harvested from one of our #RhinoBeetles, would eat the parasitic ant mites. When the results of the experiment came in this week, I was left with no choice but to take drastic action.

So you put a new species into your ant colony? Would you say that you now have an Alien Ant Farm?
@Jester Plays Games yes it is now a alien ant farm
@@giornobananadoppio202 sweet
You can order bulk mites online and then release then into the nucleus and all other colonies to prevent future infestations
This guy makes watching insects like your watching the avengers
It's just so addicting to watch it.
Its better than avengers
KNworld it is mesmerizing.
Insects are dope bruh what the hell are you talking about.
Rigz Movie Diaries Haha, I haven’t watched the movie though so I don’t know how bad it is.
This guy could do a documentary on a piece of bark and it would eventually end up into a tv series
Yep
And have a lot of viewers
Yes sir
But you have to admit, this is fascinating
Yep
AntsCanada: “If you are new here and are confused”
Me: Yes and Yes again
its funny to hear the word quarantine before the covid disaster.
ikr
Yep
Amazing how nature works? Almost like our own immune systems where designed to fight off viruses
This man knows how to make these creepy buggers turn into real characters with medieval vibe
Yessir
Hes probably gay
@@killmyhope uhh and why would you assume that?
@@killmyhope no you didn't. You just assumed someone was gay without any explanation.
@@killmyhope you didn't type anything. You only said "he's probably gay"
Humans: under quarantine for their own protection

I love this comment so much XD
Was looking for this comment XD
True

This is amazing! My youngest sister (9 yr. Old) and I are very interested in studying entomology. I am mentally handicapped and she suffers from ADHD so I have hard time finding videos that we both can watch and learn without loosing interest or it being not kid friendly.
I have only watched this video of yours and I love it! I prewatch the videos at night before I show her and I am so excited to show her tomorrow!! Thank you for your videos and you definitely have a new follower!
This is so wholesome
@@swissar very wholesome
Keep going buddy your doing great happy new year
Very good sibling. Keep taking care of her, she’ll never forget it!
U need marijuana
Guys, I'm coming to Orlando, Florida this Friday, Saturday and Sunday! I'll have a MEET & GREET, doing a talk, and will be part of different panels for an event called AnimalCon! Of course, I'm there representing ANTSCANADA! #AntLoveForever
Hii im fannn
Wow! I hope I could come.. Sadly I don’t live in the US. Anyways, good luck on your trip!
"If you're new here, and confused by all this".......
Me: YES
I read this litterly as he said it in the video.. gave me a solid chuckle +1
But yet here we are!!.. 😂😂😂👋🏽
I'm not new I'm just not caught up
hahahahah
ZZZ same
So I have no idea why this was recommended.. but this is my life now.

@@nataliemorefield9085 same as.i thought whats this crap.then thought actually this is brilliant.
“If you’re new and confused” that’s an understatement 😂😂 love your energy tho
Dude you need your own discovery channel show
Why don’t they just make this man a Netflix original
They should put all of his series’s on Netflix
No because Netflix would rob this man. Just continue supporting him through RUclips!
And Netflix would make the ants gay

Zack Janson 😂😂😂
You can buy 25,000 live hypoaspis mites for only around $70
What?! Really?!!!
Yeah, several places online have them
@@AntsCanada It wouldn't have been as dramatic, though.
yes they have them on amazon www.amazon.com/dp/B01M7RZJDX/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_U_x_hnktCbMBMYVJZ
If you do buy them what would you do with them I think you should keep them in their own enclosure so if another ant colony gets infected you could just release all of the good mites in there
fruitfly; YES IS MY TIME-
other furitfly: WE SMELL PENNYS
*rushes in*
The two ants that were alone in the tube looked very surprised to have an unexpected visit from the queen. That's pretty cool how they hopped right to her side.
Dude... I never knew keeping ants could be so full of drama, and interesting. Thank you for opening my eyes to this.
It is with the right person telling whats happening
Really nigga ... u jokin
wrgg
I have hissing roaches but I don't keep ants cause they're smarter, more organized, and scarier.
The hardest of decisions requires the strongest of wills.
Justin Y. The man the mith the anonymous
Never thought to see you on a video where your comment is not the fist one I see.
Wow. You are me. You actually like ant videos.
Man finally a touching comment
Well atleast your not first...
Love how you said “Smoothly, Curved Females.”
This is an extremely interesting concept with the mites fighting mites. I wonder if a version of this could work for bee's and their mite issues. Could change everything
This is the worst cliffhanger
IBGamma both
This guy is like a god to these antverse
*ahem* ant man
He is
So true
@@thomasgardner479 marvel let's just use this guy for the ant man movie ideas
No it is called the antiverse
Some of the most amazing story telling on RUclips.
Holy crap. This is the first video I’ve watched from this channel and I’m already loving it. The way you describe the rewards of the games and the emotions of the creatures makes it feel like they’re gladiators being prepped to go to the arena and you’re their god, promising them protection and unlimited food if they win. It’s so interesting!
You could write for anime cause nothing actually happens during the episode and yet it still somehow ends in a cliffhanger.
LMFAO
Find out next time in the next exciting episode of Dragon Ant Z!!
TheParadoxotaur 😂😂😂😂
Why is this addicting to watch? Am I the weird one here?
Nope! You're perfectly normal! This is the start of a long epic story arch which ends with the Rhino Beetle Games. Ant love forever!
no i am to
bro it is
i havent even studied becase i am obessed
Nope ur okay
No bro I’m addicted to watching it too it’s just so entertaining
Just stumbled onto your channel. Your story telling abilities are AMAZING!!! When it said to be continued I yelled, "NNNOOOO!!!". Another subscriber here my dude
Forget Discovery Channel
Welcome To Ants Canada
Thanks for watching!🐜🐜🐜🐜
Hey @AntsCanada ! Just wanna point out that you started this video saying “ dont worry I will explain everything about that Angel of Death in a minute” and then proceeded to not say a word about it and end on a cliffhanger AGAIN ! These cliffhangers are getting out of control ...
The video is litteraly titled angel of death and we still didnt hear a word about said angel of death ...
Yes we heard any it's in there in the first place and a good backstory
Yeah, this is getting to be too much. :(
That’s because his videos are filmed as a way to ‘raise suspense and hype’. They are becoming far to long and take too much time to get to the point.
Facts
Really?! All that build-up and no payoff.
dkgong that’s what she said..... wait just me.... ok
@@MasonS9980 you beat me to it
time to go incognito
I’m glad everyone else is finally catching onto this BS too.
Thumbs down this video bs ending
I’ve decided I’m not using Netflix and Disney + because the second I discovered this channel, I was delighted with the entertainment.
Really love your channel! Just discovered it last night - been watching videos on to this morning! It looks like you have an excellent talent for your craft.
He just opens up the angel of death can at the 23 minute mark and says to be continued; saved you 23-25mins of your life
Sickle praise be for sickle
thanks
@Christophe Beaudoin i agree, but still misleading title.
@@MatthewAndReagan *SICKLE*
These cliffhangers are beginning to piss me off

Been so interested in ant colonies myself. I stumbled across your page, and was completely baffled by your work. I am consumed! 👍🏻
This channel is literally the best insect viewing experience Ive come across.
Humans:*covid 19 pandemic*
Ants:*mites pandemic*
Why tho
My exact thought
Imagine if we had blood sucking mites the size of medium or large dogs.
Idk the actual size comparison but some of the mites are like almost half the size of the ants
@@marcuswolcott1848 headcrab from half life would be the thing you're looking for
Did anyone just get cliclbaited into watching him open a box and not show us ?
Yeah, it was annoying.
@@AmazinJeremiah
I agree. Vid was 30 mins I can't get back, with constant (and lackluster) build up, just for a lid to be opened on a black box.
Felt like I just binged on anime fillers.
Thumbs down.
Yes....
@@timg1099 how accurate. I feel like I binged on anime fillers, a truer statement cannot be found.
Exactly. Wasted time, don't care about it anymore.
Your videos are better than most movies I’ve seen in a long time and with humor and drama too.
You are a great narrator/storyteller, keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Did anyone else see the thief ant at 21:12 ? That is also probably another reason the golden empire was not doing well.
100 Savage ANTZ to don’t get it, all I saw was another ant
They probably moved in after the mites. Potentially even brought the harmful mites.
Wait... what?!!!!
@@AntsCanada Small yellow ant, maybe the Pharaoh ants have returned?
If it is a thief ant maybe that is why the golden empire moved into the bromeliad
Cliffhangers should be a crime.
Agree😭
Facts
Yeah
Not all cliffhangers are bad, it's when they get out of control that something needs to be done about it.
lets jail rick riordan
"Beautifully curved" had me roffling
The most epic thing I’ve ever seen

OR HE CAN GET THEM FOR FREE THAT MANY CAN KILL HIS ANTS
Adrian Simington 67$? For anyone that is too much!
@@kaiserxyozni4786 naah if it makes it so that the golden empire lives? maybe the entire colonies? yeahp that's worth it
The hardest choices require the strongest wills.
3 years later i get this in my recommendations
The ants chose you.
In last weeks video, we saw a few of the queens, all of which were free of mites. Shouldn't you save as many mite-free queens as you can before killing them off? The more queens you can save, the faster the new colony can recover.
I think another queens have been infected and killed, so these ants isolate this queen as the despair solution. But the question is why those mites appeared, maybe from cockroaches for the foraging ants?
Ikr
Why not take infected queens and move them in with the other beetles that have clearly worked before?
Because that's not good television, there must be one survivor
Lesson: Eat before you go onto your recommended.
Giovanni Atkinson uh? I’m okay. Just as long as there’s no more “spiders on drugs” in my recommend anymore
Im fine with it
I eat while watching this
First video of yours that ive ever watched. I have to say this is pretty entertaining lol good job!
Vid : shows spider
Me : -Has arachnophobia-
Dude.... angel of death in the title but its for the next video......
I hope he has the balls to adres every comment being sick of the cliffhanger episodes and not to act asif it didnt happen.
I hope you have the balls to do what hes been doing for YOU ever since(:

Started watching this video to see what was going on with the ants parasite and wound up watching a creep mate bugs and talk about it like a sport
*"The hardest choices require the strongest wills."*
-AC wiping out half of the ant population.
Meanwhile he distracts the viewers during the carnage...
*"Perfectly balanced as all things should be..."*
@Jennifer he probably isn't killing the rhino beetles
Balanced as all things should be
@Jennifer he didnt.
@Jennifer You said it yourself. "he was going to release them but got side tracked". A mistake has been made but you still blame him and calling him or the situation ridiculous and adolescent.

Uhhh he does this so he doesn't have to edit as much.
@@bugblue2419 he could at least show what he is hiding, it would take almost no more effort then the video has already taken
Had to dislike this one.
That cliffhanger felt forced because a third of the video was more about the beetles which deserve a separate video of their own
Yessss

I miss when the videos on this channel were more informative and not clickbait. I don’t know why he’s dragging his videos out like this (Actual video starts at around 11:00) because he already makes good money from his music videos and songs.
I agree
Hater
@@AninomousUser I'm not a hater of AC at all. I just dislike his current method of making videos and I'm sure many people agree with me on that.
Ok
It’s more entertaining? You appeal to a wider audience when you go from just plain information to information under the guise of entertainment.
I feel like you should voice over a animal show for children, your voice is so good for speaking.
This guy could make a document on a piece of grass and it’ll end up as a Netflix original series.
I think you should keep a Hypoaspis mite farm so that you have an insurance plan in case somethig like this happens again
It's funny! I actually worked at a place in Austria, where I sold mite eatng mites, different kinds of nematodes, special wasps and others. I think solving the problem the way nature intended is just fascinating.
I figured that type of business existed, that's awesome~!
@@alexisross9343 I had a really good time there, the customers were cool, too. (some obviously needed something for their weed plantage thouhg)
