Found this ant colony outside my house and got most of the ants and as much of the eggs and larva as i could find but i do not know what kind of ant they are. if i need to seen a better pic i will take one in the morning after i get home from work . They were found between cement tiles half stuck in the ground stacked on top of each other. Thanks

Measurements either to the closest 1/16th of an inch or in millimeters are necessary.
