i caught a new queen today. So by the title it seems i already know what species of ant it is. however here is the problem: i dont know if Formica neogagates live in michigan. i googled it and most of the searches were about killing ants :shock:

im pretty sure its a Formica neogagates by matching it with google pictures but if you guys know or can somehow find some info, then it would be appreciated.

thanks a lot ppl.

Here is a link to a map that shows where specific species of ants live! Just make sure you select "SPECIES RANGE MAPS" it the top right. This way you can select the species you think she is.

Hope this helps! ;)
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.
