ok, i am still a virgin when it come to some of you and ants species, but so far, no -ones has been able to answer my questions or understand it.
i am looking for a type of ants who build nests in trees, or outside ( like bees nest), i am specially interrested to find some species, who build nest in tree, and i means in trees, like the wave ants as a example.
most peoples thinks i means ants like carpenter who build their nest inside woods, or around wood.
as i make bonzai, i would like to build a antfarms, with one, and have the ants making the nest on top and not in the pot or else...
any suggestions of ants who build nest in different ways they the usual, underground, would be very appreciated it.
for this project i am not so interrested about seeing the ants, but more about watching them, going up and down, looking for food and building the nest in the tree...
i would love the wave ants, but they are out of my league financially at the momment :(
mind you i might be able to swap some of my colonie for some wave ants?
not that i have many yet;

M. rubra-18q+200workers),
Ph. pallidula (1q+1500 workers with major cast-solgers- from South Europe)
C. herculeanus(1q+2workers+eggs).
and the Lasius niger (1 Q+10W)

any offer?
:D :D :D

Dear crowpied,

many people like the weaver ants, but it is very difficult to get them.
In asia, the people are catch the ants for bird food.
and the export (imort) is difficult, because the ant a very sensitive.
but perhaps we find a way too find for you a colonie ;)

Greetings Martin :D
