    Elementary School - Grades 4-6
    R=Reference/Experiment   S=Sample Project
    Find out if white sage and eucalyptus concentrates repel argentine ants. R
    Research Formica Ants S
    Test whether certain odorous of household items such as vanilla extract, various liquid air fresheners, catnip, hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol, garlic, and lemons could effectively block a termite's pheromone trail and/or deter the termites from home invasion. R
    Do ants produce acid when antagonised? R
