Welcome to Backyard Ants 🐜
Step into the hidden world beneath our feet.

Backyard Ants is a casual exploration of ant life, from wild colonies in my backyard to captive formicariums in my home. Each video captures real-time behavior, everyday moments, and the quiet brilliance of ant society — no filters, no frills, just the world as they live it.

Whether you're a seasoned myrmecologist or simply curious about the trails winding across your driveway, there's something here for you. This is ant-keeping through the lens of wonder — narrated by an enthusiast, not an expert.

Watch, learn, and marvel — no lab coat required.
