Hi, my name is Mads, and I am from Alberta, Canada. I have been interested in ants for many years and have kept a few different species. We operate an organic market garden and have a number of species on our property. I'm sure some of my employees think I'm nuts as I race around with test tubes when nuptial flights are on, but oh well! Hahaha.

I currently have a colony of Formica podzolica, two small colonies of Camponotus sp., and a few Lasius sp. queens with eggs and larvae. Had a few others but I have a few ant interested nephews, so I passed them on to them to get them started. I'm sure their parents were thrilled......LOL!
