Hi 30000. Do you mean the best ant species we keep in home set ups, or our favourite ants from the wild?  |

Well, that's a fairly easy one for me. My favourite ant species wild list is} 1. Formica rufa - which if anyone has ever seen wood ants at work isn't hard to see why ;D 2. Myrmica ruginodis/rubra - as red ants were the first I ever found in the wild. 3. Lasius flavus - simply because I love the way their bodies glow a golden hue in the sun. 4. Formica fusca/lemani - as every time I've picked up these ants, they have never once bitten me. |
