Ah I can see that now. I was just being skeptical because I couldn’t see a gaster. If it’s Queen then her gaster should be obvious right?

Really?! How do you know that it’s queen?

Oh yeah the fact their mandibles did that are so crazy and cool! There’s a recent article about scientists discovered one fossil with hell ant in middle of killing it’s prey… WITH A HORN

Is this as it was claimed- a hell ant? I think both antennas and legs are at wrong place according to mandibles. Also where are compound eyes? What do you guys think?

Alright, thanks for this!! I was pretty down last night. I really don’t want to call pest control. I mean, the queen lives for 30 years, it just seems unthinkable to kill her ya know?

UPDATE: Everything I need had arrived! All I need to do is carve two hollow wood cylinders. Have a problem… I’ve just discovered ants upstairs in the loft. They seem tunneled up into behind a drywall in closet from their original nest, then more tunnels lead to top of the loft stairs. I’ll post pics...

The app is called “Ant Flight”. It tells you how likely it would happens each day for a week due to details of weather

I tried an app and it doesn’t even work from start haha.

I’ll try to keep an eye out for males out there but what if I don’t find them?

You know what? There oughta be a site or app made for nuptial flights, with pinpoint of locations. Will be awesome and helpful!

Kk sweet. I’ve set up both water and honey in the tube. Though she’s really keen on trying to get through a cotton ball lol. What if I don’t see males out there?

I’ve finally managed to capture an ant princess ventured a bit farther from its nest inside my house without its bodyguards. I want to release it before the nuptial flight. Any idea where I could safely release it??
