Flying ants are only able to fly for around 2 weeks before losing their wings.

Yep after the flying ants live for a couple weeks they lose their wings so they can no longer fly.

You can kill flying ants by mixing liquid dish soap and water in a spray bottle and then use the dish soap and water to spray the ants whenever you see them.

Another way to get rid of flying ants is to take some tape and place the tape sticky-side up near food sources in your home, the tape will trap the ants when they walk over it

The female worker ants can live for about a month while the male flying ants can live as long as 10 years.
