How many years can ants live?

Ants live a long life, and queens can live to be 20 years old. Male reproductive ants, or father ants, don't live long and will die soon after mating. A wandering ant can only live for a few days. This is due to the clear division of labor within the ant colony and the interdependent group structure, which is the basic factor for its prosperity.
