Try going back in the late afternoon/ evening. That’s when most of the queens that are flying now will be found.

lol was think to do it when the street lamps come on, since it rained the last few days i would imagine the would be flying and a light would be my best bet i guess right ? thanks for all the help,

I'm really interest in what type of ant i would be able to find since the workers get this big hahahaha

I don't think that they are attracted to normal lights, but I'm not 100% certain. They are, however, attracted to black lights.
