I need to get permits for these and start selling them, they are everywhere here. I've been finding queens ever since they started flying in July, and found another one today, way out of season. If there were ever an easy species to catch and sell en masse it's Tetras.

"God made..... all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds (including ants). And God saw that it was good. Genesis 1:25 NIV version

 

Formerly called AntsDakota, not to be confused with Ants_Dakota (hence the name change). You can still call me Adak.

 

Keeping:

Tetramorium immigrans

Formica cf. pallidefulva, cf. incerta, cf. subsericea, unidentified fusca group sp. 

Formica cf. ravida, cf. obscuriventris

Myrmica sp.

Did you ever get my PM? Apologies to cfreidsma, I don't mean to clog up the thread.
