North East Ohio, USA 5/1/2017

16-17mm in length, my guess is Camponotus but would like to know for sure. She also lost a part of her leg, can she still raise a colony? Thanks in advance. http://i1030.photobucket.com/albums/y362/Dcamelli96/51536745906__6F32E321-A8A2-47B4-9E9A-E7FF6DF63F14_zpsczs0zn4i.jpg http://i1030.photobucket....

Baby Powder Rubbing Alcohol Ratio?

Re: Kent/Ohio/United States, April 10th

Thank you for the assistance! I had feared it was some kind of solenopsis, this being my first queen this year and all would have been extremely troubling considering I'm a beginner.
