there is an ant colony under the pallet I have not taken care of yet. What is it about ants that smells like formic? I have had ants under my pallets before, and dont recall smelling formic before...Did you check for ant invasion?
Right on. You might even call it ant-acid. (insert laugh track here).Ants produce formic acid. It's the chemical ants use to put down a scent trail for other ants to follow. In fact, the word FORMA means ant.
