Illustrations of each experimental condition. (A) Main experiment (pheromone trail with unidirectional inward ant traffic). Target ants (blue) only encounter foraging ants (black) returning from the feeder. The pheromone trail is indicated by the red dotted line. (B) Control experiment 1 (pheromone trail with no ant traffic). (C) Control experiment 2 (neither pheromone trail nor ant traffic). (D) Control experiment 3 (pheromone trail with bidirectional ant traffic).
