I got a Formica best and outworld for my Crematogaster colony, is it move in ready or do I need to clean/sterilize it? Thanks

I'd just rinse it out with a little water.
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.
