If it wouldn’t contaminate the surface waters, posin/spray the little biting critters. They are ferocious!
Looks like they heard about taking to higher ground.

These boogers can swim. And they can bite the fire out of you while swimming.

That's a good question. I believe the answer is that their weight isn't enough to break the surface tension of the water. That's an amazing photo of the ants' natural instinct of survival............
