Studies conducted with animals
To determine which seed species are preferred by fire ants, we set up a cafeteria-style experiment in which we presented fire ants with seeds of native species and recorded the rate of removal in eight separate trials. However, several species... Sabatia calycina and...were discontinued after one or two trials due to lack of interest by ants even after extended periods of exposure (Cumberland et al 2013)
