Re: Stackable Pill Containers?
Do the jars seal together? I'm worried about when you have a colony of 50+ ants. I can see it getting knocked over and every chamber breaking open.

Re: Homemade Set Up Solenopsis Invicta Journal (hopeful)
Sweet great job. From Ontario Canada here and was having trouble finding a queen too. Kinda gave up when a cold front came in. Dropped from 80 to 60 in just a couple days. Do you mind me asking how you found her? Was she just running along the sidewalk or did you look in patches of grass etc. I find...

Re: Lazy Ant In VA 9/20
Hmm I generally ignore ants with a similar head to meso ratio I guess the photos I see of lasius queens shouldn't be my baseline head size. FYI New to this as of 5 days ago.

Re: Southern Ontario (Toronto) - Lasius ??
I think I may have seen some in Toronto too. I went out for my first walk yesterday. First I caught a couple large black ants, but I don't see scars and their mesothorax are small compared to their head. Then I discovered a colony of tiny red ants under a rock. Strange thing is there was brood in a ...
