Found Idaho ant queen looking for identification and answers
Posted: Fri Jul 12, 2019 12:43 pm
Hello I am a long time fan of AntsCanada and a first time queen capturer I’m broke af so I’ve opted to put her in a water bottle I’ve poked holes in and I’ve placed a wad of water soaked toilet paper for drinking needs placed in a sprig of redwood leaves for aeration and drizzled some honey for sugar. I am native to California but am visiting Idaho (a little late in the nuptial flight season) and thought I could get lucky and was successful. I will be returning home to California in a few days and hope that she will survive the airplane flight (please let me know if I should be worried or not) I will attempt to attach some pictures below.
