A lattice simulation model to investigate an interaction of herb plant and ant populations has been developed. The possibility of the ant hill occupying for two species (Lasius niger and Formica rufa) by puskies (Stellaria holostea) has been analyzed depending on ant transforming activities. There have been compared the occupying traits of ant-hills and hill adjacent territories for the investigated species.
