How kolam flour is used for the species

he kolam is not drawn for the sake of drawing in front of the house. Kolam design in Tamilnadu brings great glory to the family. Apart from these aspects there are many other strong reasons behind the kolam flour used for drawing kolam in front of the house. There are also many other species that take the kolam powder as the food. You can even see the crows sitting in front of the kolam design and eating the kolam powder. So it can be said that the Kolam powder has been a food for all the insects that are in need of the food. Kolam not only being a great work by the ladies in the early morning in front of the house, it has also been a great culture and the tradition that is being followed from the olden days itself. 

 Actually the ladies in the house prepare the kolam powder with the help of the rice flour which contains some impurities and those rice particles that cannot be used for the cooking purpose are taken and the rice particles are crushed nicely in order to make the rice flour. This rice flour is used daily to draw kolam in front of the house. The ants and the other insects will have capacity to separate the flour from the sand particle or any other impurity and use it. If we are interested to provide food to the insects then it is better to make the kolam powder with the help of the rice flour instead of any other substance. Other people also use the sodium bicarbonate for making kolam flour that is not at all fair to be used. 

Choosing Proper Kolam powder

The proper Kolam powder will only be convenient to put kolam designs. Kolam plays a major role in all the aspects. It is said that when the women in tamil nadu perform kolam work they are bending down and making the kolam work. This is a very good exercise for them in the morning time. Moreover in a joint family the participation will be from every one of the family and that will be very good to see. When the kolam construction is made in the early morning the house wife get fresh air in the morning and that will make them feel very healthy and fresh.
The actual significance of making the Kolam design in the Rice flour is that the kolam powder will be a food for the ants and the small insects. When you perform the kolam construction in the sand floor after cleaning the floor, you can find that the ants will be in a queue busy taking the rice flour particles to their holes. This is a great thing to see. For this purpose the Kolam powder is made with the help of the Rice flour. 

Ants feed on the Kolam flour

Ants are one of the great species that teach the concept of saving the food for the future. This particular concept of saving things for the future is very good indeed for the human beings. Ants take the kolam flour that is drawn in front of the house to their holes so that the rice flour that is present in the Kolam powder acts to be the best food for the ants. Moreover not only the ants but also some of the birds feed on the kolam flour. This is the best significance that occurs in drawing of the kolam flour in front of the house.
