I Am A Little Paranoid. Ants Gather Around My Urine...Am I Diabetic?

I was a little paranoid about being diabetic since my grandmother died from it so i did a little test. I urinated on a container and then left it outside for a bit and when i came back the container was full of ants even after i rinced the container (without soap) the ants kept coming back to it. Am i diabetic?

If the ants are gathering around urine, it should have contain sugars. I am not a Diabetic but even around my urine the ants gather and discuss about many issues. Do not be stupid, I heard urine has some amount of sugar and other ketones which also makes the ants gather around.
