those may be what the locals call "cleaner ants" -
they're the good guys! We had thousands of them
outside the apartments a month or so ago - some
even swarmed up the side of the building, but not one came inside. I started to go into ant-killing mode until Judith - my ayudante extraordinaire - told me to just let them do their thing, which was to clean up every dead bug, leaf and who knows what else in their path. After an hour or so, they just disappeared. They were black and medium sized - definitely not leaf-cutters. Maybe Mother Nature is cleaning up before the rainy season starts.
