"So, we are going to fight termintes, huh, termites are wimpy...right?" "Well, their soldiers are a lot bigger. Have jaws almost as big as us. And spray acid." "Uh, how do we win, then?" "Superior numbers, pal, superior Numbers..." From the movie "Antz"

Ants, termites and bees are by far the most fascinating, ingenious animals on the planet.

It seems vaguely weird that termite queens get so big yet ant queens remain relatively close to the same size as the workers, despite both being prodigious egg-layers.
