Flight in GTA Toronto yet?

Just had what appears to be a queen fly around my living room and was wondering are any nuptials happening yet? I know she won't be fertile as I'm sure she lives in my house as I think this is number 3 in my living room. She's way to small to be campanotus. She is black appears to have strips around...

Re: Ant brood stages question

So I should not give them food if she only has 1 worker? Won't it go hungry? And it looked like a small ant in a shell but last I looked it looked different?

Re: Them! What do you think

It's a really good movie that I think everyone should watch at least once in their lives.

Them! What do you think

So I just watched the movie Them! For the first time in over 20 years and it's such a great movie. If you have not seen it I would recommend it. And if you have seen it what do you think of it?

Re: I don't think she's fert :(

I'm ok with slow going I really need the time to plan out how I'm going to feed them and prevent them from getting out.

Re: I don't think she's fert :(

Great news everyone I checked on her today and she has 6 eggs 😁 I'm super excited about this. Thank you all for your help. How long will take for them to hatch? And if I attach a 2nd test tube to the first and use it to hold the food would that work?

Re: Adopting wild ants.

My colony at work seems fine but definitely not as big. I think they have lost a few hundred. And it's great to hear your daughter is into ants as well. I'm not to worried about pest control as my guard house is detached from the main building and they really don't care about us.
