I'm new to Anting in general, but I saw there were a few members in Phoenix, Az. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in meeting up to discuss ants and hang out.

I'm in Phoenix. Catching them as we speak. How many you want? Everything seem to fly today with the rain. I filled up 70 test tubes. Never seen it like this. No rain for almost 200 days. It poured and bam everything is flying. I even got some trap jaw queens it's unreal tonight. I'm using a black light and sheet. If your looking for honeypot ants i got 30 mendax tonight. 10 Pogonomyrmex and 20 messor. And a bunch of more common types.If you strike out let me know.

Hi, tagging doesn't work on this forum so sending a pm or checking the market section for an ad by the member may work better for you.

Hey guys! I am trying to get back into ants, so you will see more of me in the future. I live east of Phoenix in Apache Junction and will hopefully be able to provide Ants for others in the state once I get things up and running!


Current Ants:

C. CA02

C. fragilis

C. vicinus

M. mendax

N. cockerelli

V. pergandei

I don’t think we can legally ship ants to europe sadly.
