Still nothing for me here idk if its because the camponotus concentration near me or what haha. I know I see other ants around but when I walk the sidewalks just see camponotus workers eveywhere

Ok it just rained would this afternoon be better or tomorrow sometime I don't got much time to look so I want to get out at the best time
Re: Pennsylvania and Nearby Locations Nuptial Flight Sightings Thread
Tough to say, tetramorium usually found earlier in the day but you will still find some in the evening. So all depends different species have different times of day they prefer. I have read that pheidole tends to fly only up to half an hour after a rain during the day time. I'm not very experience and any i have gained so far taught me to take any chance I get cause you never know when you will come across 5 tetramorium on the walk home from work or whateverNewbie wrote:Ok it just rained would this afternoon be better or tomorrow sometime I don't got much time to look so I want to get out at the best time
Re: Pennsylvania and Nearby Locations Nuptial Flight Sightings Thread
Ok thanks where do you usually have luck finding them parking lots or just sidewalks
Re: Pennsylvania and Nearby Locations Nuptial Flight Sightings Thread
Sidewalks a lot it is easy to spot them and the ants in my neiborhood are active in certain spots so i pay more attention at them. If I usually see tetramorium workers in an area and then one day there is something out of place its usually a queen. My driveway sometimes produces a wandering queen. And thanks to antsrule he said check your pool and i have found some that way if they are motionless leave them to dry in the sun a bit they will be alive most likely.

Oh and flip stones and logs in your yard that's always good too
