This morning I had to convince my fiancé that my ants were not escaping. Not an easy task, let me tell you!  We just moved and our house has a resident rouge colony of house ants.

 

Any way to capture these girls or should I start the war while they are just starting to get warmed up?

Liquid ant baits work well. Not really any good way to capture them. They live in cracks and crevises for the most part.

Borax and honey, 1 part borax, 3 part honey bait. They will get into your colonies if they have even he slightest opening, and they can cause chaos to colonies
