Hello, I was hoping somebody could shed some light on a question I have. I’ve see videos of relocating an ant colony plenty of times, but not one where they are in a permanent setup like a planted vivarium. If you need to move or they must be removed from the space what is the safest way to do it?
Thank you for your time.

Re: Rehousing an established colony.
If the ants are in a location dominated by soil you can move them out by attempting to dehydrate the soil and then attaching a formicarium and Outworld to the setup. The ants will move into the formicarium as it will have a better hydration medium for The Brood.
As always, wishing you well on your exciting ant adventure, Ants the Lowcountry.
