Hey guys!
Recently weve had a lot of Lasius Niger flights here!
I was very excited and then when it happened ive noticed just how small the queens produced this year were, perhaps half the size of last years!
A lot of them have also been dying, i blame this on the pesticides theyve been spraying near me this year, as all the other years they havent been spraying they were fine
Anyway, collected myself 24 queens from the UK floghts this year, i will keep 1 successful colony and give the others away to people i know.
They are in the usual test tube setup, mostly in singles however 3 have 2 queens inside to see how this goes.
Wish me luck guys!
Im using the nest i was supposed to give to the Formica colony, as its the perfect size for them.

Locked.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.
