The term glomerulonephritis (GN) covers a group of conditions in which there is injury in the glomerulus, the filtering unit of the kidney. This can occur either as a primary glomerular disease, or secondary to drugs, infections or tumours (see Secondary Glomerular Disease, pp 464â466 of this issue).

Both the workers and the queen will eat a liquid by-product that the larvae produce when the food is fed to them. Baits are the most effective and safest way to kill ants but before you buy bait, you will want to see what the ants are eating. Most ants will eat sugar or protein based foods. Leave a little food out for the ants, sugar and protein based, so you can find out what they are eating.
