ants

has anyone else heard about this. I tried researching it abit, but came up empty so far. First the bees start disappearing(http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20070329/bees_ccd_070329?s_name=&no_ads=) now it looks like millions of ants have seemingly washed up onto a beach...

I really want to know if there is a brolliu model out/comming out.
