Hello all Just to let you know I have found a few Myrmica queens about today so they may be out now! I live in Cornwall so I guess this info might only be relevent for people in the southwest but just thought I would let you know

We're still in the rain here (Chichester), so no luck for flights

I was accused of my ants roaming free to come home to find Lasius Niger + flavus queen running around

Haha thats brilliant! I saved the first one I found from our new kitten, luckily I was there just in time I only found two in the end, but I thought it may be worth posting incase anyone else could find any. It's nice and sunny here ;D

I managed to find a couple of Myrmica queens as well yesterday. Its a shame this species never seems to have flights aproaching the size of Lasius (flavus/niger) in my area as I can only ever find the odd Myrmica queen. Also managed to find a lone Leptothorax acevorum queen and some Formica fusca queens.
