Next year if I don’t catch one I would like to buy a prenolepis queen if anyone in va can catch one or have seen them fly and thinks they can get a colony started for me to buy then name your price also looking for any lasius queens to name your price. I’m located in Richmond Virginia. 


Also not to forgot I’ll trade any of my ants that I have in my shop.

I may go formica hunting next year ill start with the formica in my yard then go out to the parasitic ones in my secret spot.

Edit: the key to finding them is just look near the end of june around their nest.
