I've been doing a bunch of research, and it seems as if I missed the boat by a month or two. Is it possible to find a queen ant in CO any time soon?

I had 30+ tetramoriums and Zero had 15+ Pogonomyrmex Occ. .....He's also got some others that he somehow found randomly. With it being colder out, Winterpark got their first snow, I'm thinking its time to reduce back the sprinklers even. I'd say you're probably on the tail end of the season. As far as the ones I've got around my house, I'm not seeing much/anymore. Maybe a social parasite could be found though it would need another colony to take over. Be on top of it next year and you'll have more than you know what to do with.
