Cool Thanks. I'm wanting to get on the GAN list but 1st I need to get me some queens. I have 2 now but only one has workers. Crematogaster laeviuscula is very hungry and growing fast. I caught her June 2015 and she quickly started laying eggs. She had 6 workers before hibernation, and now she has the same 6 workers and a large clutch of eggs that just keeps growing. The other Solenopsis xyloni, I found her in the pool filter. She laid a large clutch of eggs and then I guess she had them for dinner lol.
