I am probably going to go to Tenafly, NJ to meet family friends. I was wondering what the anting climate is like there? I won't take anything back to me for Michigan but it would be pretty cool to show my mom's friend's 9 year old all about the insects around him.

Well, there's less RIFA so more Camponotus pennsylvanicus!

It’s probably basically the same as Michigan. Everything is dormant now in any case.

I still think basic conditions and ant diversity are very similar between the two states in June.
