Regardless of ants, olive oil is not the best for seasoning cast iron. It can work, but it’s a low smoke point oil so generally it won’t work as easily or as well compared to others oil choices with higher smoke points like canola or sunflower oil.

You shouldn’t be seasoning pans with olive oil, it doesn’t have a high enough heat tolerance and it goes rancid

Why is there olive oil on your cast iron? That’s the real question here.

This is like those fish that eat the dead skin off your feet. I wouldn’t even be mad.

Your fault for using such delicious olive oil. This one’s on you, OP.
Does that pan have specialized uses, btw? The shape has me curious.

Now you have to wait for them to do the whole thing or it’ll be uneven.

Can they come do my dishes after they’re done?
That’s nice the ants are cleaning it for you
