Length: 5mm, or just above .25 inch

Additional Info: I think some were coming from a orange colored colony located between two blocks of sidewalk.

Also, does anyone know if these are polygynous?

Are you sure that they are 5mm? Not 7mm?

Several yellow Lasius species should be flying soon. They may found their colony with several queens, but in all records I ever found, only one queen will remain in the end.
