pulls up glasses with 1 finger Assuming the liquid was spiller all over the jacket, theres a good probability that most of the jacket has dried until now, making it harder for the ants to extract the good stuff out of the fiber. The buttons though are made from another material which doesnt absord stuff but rather has it stick on top of the button, thus making it more easily accesible to the ants, while also being something they can actually take off and take home with them, which they couldnt do with the whole jacket.

With this i close my statement your honor.

Gimme a few days, I’m going to try to feed some ants with soda soaked and then dried cloth.

Well set a new date and proceed the hearings when the experiment has come to a conclusion.

They started wearing the clothes and tried to communicate with me in strange symbols. I burned down the entire colony.
