The species of ant you're seeing is not the dominant colony but is being destroyed by another colony, and they're just taking away their victims.

What is the best way to find a leak in an above ground pool? I have an 18 foot round above ground pool. It will lose aprox. 3 inches of water a day. It drops to just about the return ‘eye’ ball then stops. I would have thought it would be somewhat easy to find once it reaches it lowest level, but I can not find a hole or rip or split in the seam at all. Also, it does not seem to be coming from either the strainer port or the return. Any suggestions? ... (Asked by I Believe!)
