Hi,

I just found an ant colony from this small black ant while I was moving some stuff at my backyard. I captured three queens and some workers.

They are small and move very quickly (as you can see in the video) and they are very common here in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico. They seem to love sugar.

I'm adding the link to the youtube video, because I don't know how to add videos to my post.

Thanks.
