How to get full list of exotic species in your state!

So everyone already knows how to look up on AntMaps the full list of native ants in their region, but what about exotic ants? In many locations some exotic species are more populous than the native, yet if you just look at the list provided on AntMaps you'll never even know they were in your region until you ran across some of them. I wanted to find a list of these for my state, so I made a easy to use tool that will provide you with the list of exotic ants in your state!

Let me know if this helped you discover a species you didn't know inhabited your state!

Interesting.
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.
