Serafine, What I meant is that they like warmth for the duration of when they are active.

Lol, every ant likes it warm when they're active (with the exception of super odd ones like winter ants).

I am not sure on the spray, and I may have exaggerated when saying no spiders, but very very little to if any spiders are here. If any ever do show in the house, they are to sly for me to get, or they are pretty freaky looking. The house is sprayed every week to 2 weeks. I see no spiders during winter, and during the spring you see them for like a couple days, then never again.

Is there storage hall near your place? These usually have tons of spiders.

We should respect all forms of consciousness. The body is just a vessel, a mere hull.

I wouldn't recommend catching spiders from your house if it's sprayed constantly. Even if insects don't die they can accumulate toxins.

Serafine, but I was saying Camponotus especially.

I figured, as to why I never did catch them. Even so, i still am not sure as to why I have failed at raising so many queen ants. You better bet this year I will be posting them a lot for every step help xD I appreciate all your guys' help I really do!

My ants won't eat honey, but they love sugar water!
