Ants can move backwards,
move to get out of the path of
an ant that's coming the other way,
but I've never seen it move more
than a three or four steps (with so many
legs, is 'a step' one leg and foot moving
or all of them moving once?) I don't know
how far they can move backwards, but I
assume that there's not too many reasons
for one to 'back out of the driveway', as it were.
*Example, here at home, ours is 350' long*
Ant runs tend to be made for two-way traffic, so
just turning around shouldn't be any problem.
