OK I have done the experiment. It was a massive failure.

So on a normal day I cannot smell ants. I can smell ants if I’m close and I squash them so I now know what they smell like.

I fasted for almost 3 days and I tried to smell ants each day and I could never smell them.

I did learn that they bite and I got bit a lot.

So far it’s going terrible. I can’t find a single ant to get a control test done. I swear these little fellas were everywhere until they heard my plans to begin developing this superpower now they’re nowhere to be seen.
