Hey does anyone know how to Follow a post?

what i'm going to do is in the spring i'm going to find a couple workers outside put them in a container in the garage with the past and see if it works.

I hope this works

sorry i was just trying to get the pictures when i had to do something

well I was just trying to see if anyone has tried it before

I know that the first is a camponotus (pennsylvanicus is my guess but it can't hurt to be sure) and the second one I have know idea.

I was thinking has any one tried cornstarch instead of a talc powder barrier? Because I keep on forgetting to get baby powder and Vaseline is not the best (I've had several escapes). and if you know any other barrier substitutes please share them.

My campanotus queen (which I had for a year now) lost all of her workers before hibernation. I've been kinda lazy and just shoved them on a hidden corner in my room (not even a cold place) and my queen laid eggs? I've read that queens don't lay eggs in hibernation and that the brood doesn't develop....
