Re: Test tubes

You said you don’t want to buy online, but tarheelants.com sells really nice glass ones that are large diameter. AntsCanada sells small diameter plastic ones. As far as walking into a store and buying them, probably not. You would have to find something to make do like Boomdale said. Floral shops h...

I bought my plastic ones from Walmart, in the US. I bought tubes of glitter for like 30 cents and then washed them out and have currently successfully founded two colonies in them. Glass ones I’m going to get off Amazon.com
That’s a good idea. I’m going to see if I can find something like that

Re: The Ultimate Burn Of Catching Ant Queens

Goodluck to you too. I live way down in Louisiana so it’s still in the 90s everyday. It took me weeks to find the first queens and the very first died. Then it was pretty much only solenopsis for a really long time. You should check the GAN project too. I’ve definitely been considering the GAN proj...

Re: Test tubes

I have plastic because that was the easiest for me to go down to the store and grab but I don't recommend them. They scratch and make it difficult to see into the tube. Next spring I will pick up some glass ones. Do you know stores that sell plastic or glass? I just need some for queens. I have non...

Re: The Ultimate Burn Of Catching Ant Queens

Update: 4 pheidole workers escaped and I only found 1. Kinda crazy that this thread was just started and now it happened to me. Wasn’t the queen though ;) At least you caught one. I’m really upset cause it’s my first queen I've caught ever and the first I’ve seen in weeks. And I can’t find it now. ...

Test tubes

Hey everybody, I need to buy some test tubes but I don’t want to buy online. Does anybody know any stores in Canada/BC where they sell test tubes? Also would you recommend plastic or glass?
Thank you.

Re: The Ultimate Burn Of Catching Ant Queens

My mistake!
I knew termites ate wood but I thought that camponotus did the same thing.
Thank you for the correction!
