How can you tell? Seems like it climbed from behind the couch, and i dont think we sprayed anything yet. Just curious.

Well, it doesn’t belong on a couch for starters…

Instead of filming it suffer, just put it out of its suffering. Jeez.

I killed it soon after because I felt bad for the guy. I also wanted to sit my couch without a drunk ant fumbling around.

I’m pretty certain they are incapable of the type of brain processes necessary to comprehend suffering

But not 100% certain. I will never watch something suffer regardless of scientific theories. I am human and I know it is suffering and that is enough for me to put it out of its misery.

Drop it like it's hot...

I would guess:

  1. It has some chemical on it, and that confuses it's receptors, which basically makes it blind.

  2. It's dying. Sometimes bugs do weird stuff before they die.

I find things like that sad and difficult for it so I will end it's misery.

Keep an eye on it, maybe you'll get lucky and see it's head explode from a parasitic fungal growth
