Actually, some species of ants do sleep but they sleep about like 250-300 times a day. Ants have VERY short periods of sleep for like one minute.

Answer #2

Seeing they get stepped on a lot by us humans, they do have their own “homes” in those dirt mounds seen on sidewalks, and in grass, etc, they probably go in those “homes” to sleep and when they don’t feel like being stepped on anymore.
