Hi guys. I am new to this forum as well as ant keeping. I would like to start my own Tetramorium (Paver Ant) colony, but I cannot find the nuptial flight schedule for these ants in South Africa, specifically near Cape Town. I have been scouring the internet to find the schedule for this specific ant, but to no avail. Can anyone please assist me? Cheers! :D

You could try checking antflights, but they might not have them for Africa.
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.
