Hello everybody,
I was wondering do you guys know when to move a colony of pavement ants into a hybrid nest mini? My colony has about 20 workers, 1 egg laying queen, and lots of brood. Thanks for any help!

Hey,
I would wait until you have about 50+ workers. Given their small size, they are likely to remain in one small corner of the nest, and use the remaining space for waste. This will lead to possible mold and mite issues.
