Ant Torture Art Machine

I built this a few years ago over an anthill. The wind blows the bones back and forth, scraping the dirt.

Ah, I see it now…….Taos News headline……….”Tantalizing tripod teases teeming termites” What you neglected to say is whether or not the bag of bones was a gift or menace to the little devils. Love your posts, by the way.

By “torture,” I mean I hope it bugs the hell out of ’em! Seems like the scraping would amount to someone setting off a security alarm every time the wind blew. As an ant control mechanism, it doesn’t work nearly as well as burning gasoline, however.
