Before you even touch a single grain of sand, you and Dan have to shake on the big things. The Code of Conduct starts with a promise: “I will not abandon you in the middle of feeding the queen.” This isn’t just about ants, folks—it’s about trust.

So, the first rule is simple: show up for the colony. Think of it like a tiny, hairy-backed marriage. You’re in it for the long haul, even when the ants decide to build a tunnel directly into your bedroom wall. I mean, who knew they had such poor interior design skills?
