Essay topics:

The yellow crazy ant is one of the world's most destructive invasive species (species that are not native to an area but rather introduced to it).It has spread to many regions of Earth and caused great damage to native ecosystems.In recent decades, the crazy ant has invaded part of a unique palm forest on one of the Seychelles Islands off the coast of Africa.Some strategies are being considered to stop the ant from spreading farther and damaging the unique ecosystem of the palm forest.
One of the strategies proposed to stop the ants is to use traps containing a low concentration of chemicals that are toxic to the ants.These ant traps have been successfully used in other locations,such as an island near Australia,where up to 99 percent of the invasive ant population has been killed by traps.
Another strategy would be to cut down broad-leaved trees,which are the ants favorite habitat.Broad-leaved trees host a type of insect that provides food (a sugary substance)for the yellow crazy ants.The broad-leaved trees are not native to the palm forest;they were introduced there recently.Removing the trees would not damage the palm forest ecosystem,but it would reduce the extent of the habitat preferred by the invasive ants,which might reduce their population.
Finally,it has been noted that ant populations are significantly denser near areas with human activity.Recently,a sharp increase in yellow crazy ants has been observed at one edge of the palm forest where a new visitor center was built,which suggests that more ants were transported to the area with construction material used for the center and that the ants have been eating food left behind by visitors there.Limiting human activity near the palm forest could help reduce ant populations.

The passage discusses that yellow crazy ants as one of the most destructive invasive pieces worldwide that has brought about a plethora number of damage to native ecosystems. In the following, the writer puts forward several solutions to mitigate their impact. The lecture, however, finds none of them practical by presenting some rational counterarguments.
First and foremost, the reading asserts that exploiting traps that contain some degree of chemical toxicity will prevent the yellow ants from dominating more areas because this has a positive response used on an island near Australia. On the other hand, the professor points out that the proposed trap does not differentiate yellow ants from other ant species which results in killing native species as well. Therefore, This solution is not reliable.
Secondly, the article claims that cutting down broad-leaved trees all of which host the insect that provides food for yellow ants will decline in population. Conversely, the speaker clears out that yellow ants thrive in several different ways including sunlight. As a result, if we cut down trees, they will have access to more sunlight hence thriving even more.
Last but not least, the passage, mentions limiting human activity as they left food behind that is useful for yellow ants. In stark contrast, the professor reveals this may slow down their population growth but it will have an adverse effect on the local economy since tourism and scientists are the source of income for the local community.
