I was at the Daytona Reptile show and my daughter wanted a horned lizard baby. I said no as their main diet is harvester ants and they need the formic acid from them to flourish. The dealer said that they didn't need the ants, that there was a formic acid powder that could be sprinkled on other insects so you didn't have to use ants. I have never heard of such a thing, and think it was just a sales ploy. Anyone heard of this? Thanks.
