Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee I will be able to catch this species (or any species not currently stocked) this season though, as always, I will try my best to find a good variety.

 

Keep checking the first page for new & available ant species as I update it daily!

Purchased the Formica perpilosa last week, all arrived alive and well with a few extra feeder termites as a bonus! Ants were packaged well and arrived promptly. Would definitely recommend to those looking for a reputable vendor with a neat variety of ants.
