Ant Mound

The Ant mound is a location in the Mojave Wasteland, located south of the Allied Technologies Offices and Camp McCarran, or north-west of REPCONN Headquarters. It consists of a single section cave inhabited by fire ants.

Exterior
An old, dilapidated farm has been taken over by fire ants. They have killed the two brahmin in their corral and likely the inhabitants of the farm itself. The ant mound is hidden in the barn. In or near the barn 5-7 fire ants are present. Up the stairs inside the barn, there are two metal boxes, a footlocker, a toolbox, a grenade box and an ammunition box. Straight north of the barn, there is an Abandoned warehouse, which is unmarked on your Pip-Boy map, and is entered during the concluding part of the quest Birds of a Feather given by Gloria Van Graff.

Ant Mound
Inside the mound is a small network of tunnels with a few fire ants and a fire ant queen. Search the queen after killing her, and sometimes you will find ant queen pheromones.

Notable loot

 * Several Ant refuse piles in and around the barn may contain ant nectar and random loot.
 * 2 dead bodies with random loot inside the giant ant queen room.
 * 5 frag grenades, 20 microfusion cells, and a power fist inside the barn.

Bugs

 * When entering the Ant Mound, companions will become stuck at the entrance behind the webbing. They will usually be able to join up with you after you've traveled further into the cave.
 * When entering for the second time the two wastelanders may spawn alive.

Appearances
Ant mound appears in Fallout: New Vegas.
