The Rasberry Crazy Ant‚ also known as the Tawny Crazy Ant or Nylanderia Fulva‚ originated in the countries of southern Brazil and northern Argentina before the exotic species made it’s way into America‚ most likely by a cargo ship. The Rasberry Crazy Ant is a red brown‚ tenth of an inch‚ insect covered in tiny hairs that has the ability to excrete an acid that acts as an anctidote to Fire Ant venom. Due to their slow speed‚ which only allows them to travel about a tenth of a mile to half a mile per

Mammals – have a secondary group of receptors that do not respond to typical odorants‚ but to pheromones such as compounds found in urine.

Infradian Rhythms the timing of which is governed by endogenous (internal) biological cycles and possibly also by exogenous cues (zeitgebers). One exogenous cue may be female pheromone production‚ which may bring women’s menstrual cycles into synchronization with those of other women with whom they are in close proximity for an extended period of time.
