Formic acid meyabolizes to water and a hydrocarbon. HL's are terrible at holding their water so ants are like a tiny drop of water running around the habitat.

Give them a moist place to sleep and keep them full of food and all is well.

I have had beginners raise them from hatchlings they find when camping in the desert.
