Tetramorium Nuptial Flights in Utah

I am starting ant-keeping this summer, but I haven’t had luck finding any queens in my neighborhood yet.
Does anyone know if Tetramorium nuptial flights have started yet in Utah, what month or time of day to find them, or if there are any good locations in Davis County to find queens?

Anywhere between May to August is good for pavement ants to have their nuptial flights.
Keep your eye out for any queens!

Thank you! There is supposed to be a pretty long rainstorm tomorrow so I’m planning on searching for queens the next morning. Hopefully I can find some!
