[Kiam]

I went around my cousins house for 3 days and at there they said that dont like there red ants(myrmica rubra) I think or its formica fusca i aint sure

But ive collected alot off them and i think i have some queens does this mean a queen is in a colony??

Alot off the ants huddle up in like a corner? I see some big ants in there but i still cant tell the queen different much :s

Sorry I meant Myrmica ruginodis because they all look the same and i dont know which one i actually have :S

[Kiam]

So can someone tell me if they huddle up in an area that there is a queen ?

[miszt]

they do, but that doesnt mean u have a queen, however, if u can see sum very large ants, chances are you do have a queen or two as these ants dont have majors afaik

Is there a way to put a good picture of the ants here ? Than we can tell you more.

[Kiam]

Yeah I will post pictures soon when they settle in there ytong propley must leave them for a day or so..

[Kiam]

the ytong keeps getting condensation on it so its hard to take pictures how do you stop condensation on your one ?

[mpir]

It´s easy. Don´t put so much water in it and keep it ventilated.

[miszt]

will also depend on the temp inside the ytong and the room its in, Cold glass with warm air and moisture inside will give u condensation, maybe ur ytong needs to be in a warmer part of your house

[Kiam]

well its outside but in a cuboard heh cant spell it i dont think its basicly should be same temp as in the backgarden shed and it has a tea towel over it to keep it more darker from when i open it and it should make it warmer inside to

[Varban]

Try replacing the towel with a sheet. They towel as acting as an insulator thus contribution to condensation formation.

[Kiam]

mostly all the condensation is gone i just need to get a good photo...

[JimmyVe]

Still waiting on that one. lol
