How any eggs does a female ant lay a day?

Most ants are workers or soldiers and never lay any eggs at all; only the queens lay eggs, and they lay thousands and thousands because they have to produce all the workers and soldiers as well as new queens. Queens of some species that have large nests eventually have to lay millions. There is no single ant called a house ant, but most of the small ants that enter houses have several small queens in any one nest at any one time. Even such a small queen will generally lay thousands of eggs in her lifetime.
