First Comes Egg, Then Comes Larvae, Then comes the Pupae Stage!

Ants go through four stages to reach their final adult stage. Each one lasts days to weeks, and all happens in around 60 days! We are going to discuss what their pupae stage includes! Before we dissect that, let’s talk about what ant stages are Demarest, NJ.

First, ants start off as eggs. The Queen of the colony will lay hundreds of eggs a day! They will stay in this stage for around 7-14 days. Weather and environment can play a role in that and sometimes it makes take them a little longer to develop to the next stage.

Next, after the egg stage, they go through the larvae stage! This stage can last around 2 weeks. Larvae have are white and waxy appearance. They slightly resemble maggots in their shape and size. Larvae are fed a liquid diet by the adult ant caretakers.

After larvae, we have the pupae! This is the final gestation for these insects before they are fully developed adults. This is also the longest stage where they do the most developing! It can last 6-10 weeks from start to finish. Regardless of if it’s the pupae of black ant or carpenter ant, the pupae protect themselves by spinning a cocoon around them. It’s during this stage that they will transform from the waxy white color of their adolescent stages to the dark brown/black color that they will sport in adulthood. 

Pupae are cared for by adult worker ants. Ant colonies are very organized, and they have plenty of helpers that take over the responsibility of caring for the queen and any adolescents. Once these puppies hatch out of their cocoons, they will be fully formed adults. Soon, pupae may be the ones caring for the next “generation” of ants!
