i am right across the Oregon border and have found multiple pheidole colonies. so there is a high chance there is pheidole in Milton Freewater Oregon.

I’m on the complete other side of the brick from you, but Pheidole is also my target genus for 2020.

I don’t know but I believe it was a polygynous species, and they like nesting around concrete
