 9/19 in north/north-central Indiana, just caught a newly mated Pheidole Sp. queen.
Oh, I want to catch catch a Pheidole queen, I should keep my eye out!
It’s actually my second this year. The first one was a couple months ago. It’s funny because I found this one in the exact same blueberry bush pot that I found the first one.

Man, your lucky, I have been keeping ants for two years and I haven’t even found one! :(
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.
