Boy have I got a story for the AC family! I just last year had bought an ant nest bundle including a nest, outworld, and a test tube setup up from Antscanada. I was ready to begin my search for a queen to start a colony. I spent months of time searching, but only came across three different queens, none of which I was looking for, but I still wanted to catch them anyway for experience, but in this, the Camponotus died, the unidentified Fire Ant queen escaped, and so did a incredibly small species of ant (origin of Illinois). I spent all of this year's winter preparing again and was not able to find anything until last night. My house is quite old, and was built in the late 1800's, meaning we have quite a few cracks, however my family doesn't mind. I was walking into my kitchen last night to grab a glass of water when all of a sudden I find a winged creature (I assumed at first it was a type of beetle) but at closer glance I realized it was an ant queen, just walking into my bathroom! I quickly ran to my room, and grabbed a test tube and a cotton ball and scooped her up! I can't believe this luck! Share your stories below if you wish, just thought I'd share with the AC family. I'm almost positive it's tetramorium sp. E, which is the species i've been searching for. Hope everyone has a great day.
Hehe I like to imagine the queen chose you!
I have a story. One night I was sitting in my bed I saw a little black thing in the corner of my eye. I looked at it and realized it was a queen ant.
I wish i was as lucky as you i spent 3 weeks looking for queen ants i found one but it was the ONE day i didn't bring my test tubes. 😑. (If your wondering i usually keep at least 1 test tube in my pocket at all times.)
I normally carry one with me too, i've been searching for the summer before this one so I feel you pain :)

Its been almost exactly a year to date when I started watching AntsCanada, I remember when this channel popped up in my 'recommended for you' section, and I was sceptical at first. I didn't think Ants could be interesting, the way I was raised we viewed them as pests to get rid of. Yet here I am, almost one year later. I have every Saturday bookmarked in my calendar to tell me to come back to watch the video, not like I need the reminder though. Needless to say, this is one of my favourite youtube channels, I've had my phases of watching people for months at a time or things like that, but no matter what, week after week, you always seem to help me learn new things about Ants and the world I hadn't known before. I think I speak for all of the AntsCanada Family when I say this; Thank You. From the bottom of our hearts thank you for what you do. It may not seem like much uploading once (or now twice!) a week talking about Ants for the world to learn, but for some of us, these 20-minute videos are a high point in our week. Sorry for my rant but I felt like I had to share on my one-year Antiversery! Its #AntLoveForever!
Thank you for being with the AC Family so long! It means a lot to me. Ant love forever!
Wow, just wow! I can't think of anything good to say accept well said. #AntLoveForever
Alexei Volkov you’re not wrong but if in your home ants are pest along with all other insects
That is mikey bustos
WHAT YOU'RE MIKEY BUSTOS!?!?!
I knew it. that voice was so familiar
Hey AC Family, I recently wondered into your videos while I was deployed. They help the time go by, and give me something to look forward to each week. Having that little something can be a huge help when your so far away from your friends, family, and everything you've known. I wanted to say thank you for all the hard work you and this community put into the passion that is ant keeping. Being in the military means that having pets, especially ants isn't possible because of the constant movement, so your videos have been my way of raising, and keeping ants vicariously through you and the community. Since I haven't been watching these videos for very long, I was curious about if you have considered, or if you already do a video each year during the nuptial flight season showing off this great community's queen captures.
Thank you again A.C. and A.C. Family,
I look forward to the continued ant love forever.
I once saw a queen ant just casually walking in front of my house, nowadays I wish I would have captured it to build my own ant farm...
I got a fire ant 🐜 sting in the left leg

Holy- when i was a kid i always ripped off the wings of "ants", i thought they were just normal ants- *now im crying since i cant see them anymore :(*

Same
When i was young i squished the normal ants and the queen'

You could fine another one
How are the termites?
Tyrannosaur Roar We'll probably be getting an update on them later. He hasn't been home for the past two weeks, so he likely doesn't know.
Who knows???
That’s true real logic
Tyrannosaur Roar I don’t know
We can always hope he does Wednesday updates on the termites and the colonies that don't do to much week by week or month by month.
Okay... After living for decades in PH, it's just now that I learned that we have fire ants here. I never knew that those red ants that I loathe so much for biting me as a kid are actually fire ants and those with wings flying after it rains are actually queens.
Lmao same I use to pluck their wings and play with their head :( I wanna see nuptial flights here now
Aquables ur evil
Same, here in ph, there are so many fire ants ant... I saw many winged ants and just killed it😅😅
Crazy to think I was watching your videos at about 10 years old. I am now 20 years old and seen every video and still watching! Thanks for the endless entertainment and information!
Before i started watching you I could never imagine that ants can be that interesting to watch
Video : "As i took a closer look, this is what i saw" Ad about shampoo starts playing
Me : Wait what?
My dude I just laughed harder than I have in weeks thank you
I love how into bugs he is it's so cute!
It’s like he’s a ant whisperer 😅
Funnily enough 2 years ago at Poland I saw a nuptial flight as it was right in front if the house. Wow how lucky am I?
Right here in Slovenia I had a season where you would see searms of flying ants in the air. You could get lots of them stuck in your hair. I wish I knew I could make colonies out of them
me reading it exited because i live in poland:yes
AC Question of the Week! There are several reasons why this place provides a great hunting ground for queens, mentioned in previous and today's video. One reason is that the cement makes it easier to see the ants, and is easier to traverse than other areas. Also, a river is located just near by, which can provide a water source for many plants and animals, including ants. These are the main reasons I believe that that path makes a good hunting ground for queen ants, although you didn't find any this week. Ant love forever!
My luck is better than AntsCanada! I just caught a Carpenter 🐜 queen and its laying eggs! It's doing very well. Have any of you guys managed to catch a queen ant this nuptial flight season?
Please like so that AntsCanada can see this! Thanks!
I havne't fully watched the video, but I have a question. So you, as an ant enthuisiast, would never miss a chance to catch some Queen ants. When you've done this, what do you do about the amount of queen ants you caught? Surely you don't make them all into your own colonies?
Great question! Well, first off, not all queens caught end up making it. Some die during the founding stage or some are not fertilized and die in their test tubes. Many take a long time to get to an established colony while others advance much faster than others. I recommend for people to put up their excess queens for adoption through the GAN Project. They can help local ant keepers acquire ant colonies of species they are certain is from their area (and not imported illegally/irresponsibly from abroad) and you can make a few bucks doing what you love.
AntsCanada are there Gan farmers in Italy?
2024 anyone?
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Here
It just rained hard
No, 1323
yep
You mentioned going home, which made me miss mine. Then you start to show us catches from other AC Family members and, lo and behold, the very first one you show is one from my home town.
Is it just me or does this guy sound like Korg from Thor Ragnarok
AntsCanada u are the best UA-camr!
MrAgentKarp no doubt bout it

MrAgentKarp he not he 5 best
Corridor Digital is better

Those caterpillars are an invasive species
Victor Clabaugh right😂 Gypsy moths
I like what you're doing AntsCanada. It's great seeing kids getting excited about nature and learning. When I was growing up, it was shows like Wild America, Wild Kingdom and Nature, that encouraged my passion for learning about nature. I also used to love going through the Encyclopedias and animal books, learning about strange animals. You also remind me of LeVar Burton, with the way you address your audience.
I'm not going to start ant keeping. But, I do enjoy nature shows. I will however keep some honey on me, with rand acts of ant kindness in mind. Thank you for sharing.
“It’s like catching a real life Pokémon”
Sign my ass up! Great videos bro.
lol
I had a queen land on me the other day, I watched her breaking off her wings. I don't have space to keep an ant colony right now though so I didn't catch her😞
It was super cool though.
I like eusocial insects they're just so efficient I honestly believe that they could take over the world if they weren't so small and had such a small lifespan
"Its like pokemon"
:3
Lol seam
Yeah its same like catching some pokemon
>:T
nah dude it's not (¬_¬ )
I don’t keep ants , but where I live , low BC Canada, there was huge numbers of ants flying in my town. They were all over the ground on some of the paths, and in the air everywhere else !
Ev an third comment about people in BC I've seen.
Must be something in the water that makes us love ants.
that happens with ants in Australia too, one time I saw a huge cloud of about 300 male and queen elates all flying above my trampoline and landing on it for me to catch easily, although I didn't catch any because I didn't have a test tube for them
Formica Fusca: Black ants
Formica Rufa: Wood ants
It suraunded by trees and grass,also i found a queen injured i took care of her but sadly she died😢😢😢😢😢😢

Hey I just wanted to finally take the time to say that this is 100% in my opinion the best channel on UA-cam, its the only channel I've ever subscribed to! I've been watching for about five months now and your videos are the best part of my Saturdays! It's 100% changed the way I view ants and insects, I love watching ants now, people think I'm crazy sometimes lol even my fiancé likes watching your videos with me. I live in Windsor ontario so I've spotted several of the species in this video. Thank you again for all the work you put into this and the amazing attitude you have towards ants and your view on life has impacted my life as strange as that sounds. Keep up the good work! #alf
Thank you for the support! Ant love forever!

Today I went outside and saw a whole bunch of ants running around on my porch! It startled me at first but I saw like 15 queen ants wandering around amongst them. Very cool!!
Agree
@@sinerix4865 I don't think it's a lie, it might have been a multiple queen speies or maybe he just mistook some super majors for queens.
I have taken care of natural made ant colonies in my grandmother's front and back yard. This is all of them and their numbers (from the visible eye)
1st colony: Ember Imperium, a mature colony i found near my driveway. They are tropical fire ants, haven't seen their queen yet, but they are the most scientifically forward colony I've seen. They manage multiple nests, which are connected by strands of silk. Their favorites food, right now, is a fresh apple.
2nd colony: The Black Mass, a smaller, more distant, black ant colony. They are the more scavenge-type colony. Queen has not been seen yet. Their favorite foods are oranges and apples.
And the third colony: the Fire Crusaders, their queen has been seen as of today. Favorite food: Oranges.
Hope the Black Dragons are safe and sound.
Those caterpillars gave me chills😫😫😫😫😫
Me and ants always had a war
For food, they were in my biscuits 😭
Protein is expensive.
You should be grateful.
2:53 dude I thought that the Bush was a weird shape or something.over lapping the concrete, like If it was a Bush fence blocking the rest of the cement. f, it freaked me out lol
I'm not on drugs, I'm half asleep
Myrmica is a great advise. I scooped these up in a garden in Amsterdam. These M. rubra workers were stinging the children of the owners, who asked for my help. Anyway, I relocaded most of the huge polygenous colony, while keeping about ten queens and sufficient workers. They displayed very interesting territorial behaviour. I find their stings not painfull, just a little itchy.
Not painful?! They hurt INCREDIBLY! I once was standing on a nest of Myrmica, and one got me on my chest (of all places) and it stung for at least 10 minutes!
High pain tolerance 😱

It would make my day if you came on holday to wales(UK) and help me find a ant
I cant find any
Alex Foster You will be able to find some when the flight occurs if you haven't already missed them. If you miss them then you will have to wait a year.
First ..this path cuts in half the park so ants have to pass from it in order to find food or something . In addition in the path we can see easier the ants than if they were in thick grassland . The river may provide them water too. Lastly, ants may prefer the pathway for meeting their mates because chemical signs can be easily detectable because of no obstacles

How to find queen ant jordan
TERMITES! TERMITES! TERMITES! TERMITES!
I have a very good story for everybody! Well actually 2! :). So one time I was looking for a queen ant with my test tube and ant nest. I found 3. Not sure what 2 of them were but I know that one of them was a camptonotis (idk how to spell it) they all escaped through the vent I had them next to by them chewing through the cotton balls. So I was walking to my bathroom and I found one! I grabbed it with my test tube and raised it. (It was a mica fire ant) then I was walking outside and found 3 more of the same one! So I put them in one nest. They started laying so many eggs!! I kept finding more and more!! They were awesome. But then when I moved to my nana and papa’s house I had to get rid of them because my nana has an ant fobia idk what it’s called so I put them in a huge bush in the forest next to my house. I was sad but still visit them! I know where their new nest is and whenever I find a queen I put it there. Story #2. (This was a few days after my first story) So I was walking with my friend Nathan and he had an ant farm. And he was collecting mica fire ants! So I said “I know where a bunch of them are” and he said, “woah cool show me!” I said “follow me to my colony!” He looked very confused. I showed him and he started grabbing them and putting them in his farm. One of them was able to get on his hand! Then more came and started stinging him!! He was screaming and I was laughing while helping him. He had to be taken to hospital and he didn’t blame me. He blamed himself for his dumb actions of being to excited. We’re still best friends to this day!
ANT POWER!!😂😂😂
JEEEEEEZ this comment is a year ago! I still visit that colony to this day. Nobody touches that bush anymore. It literally looks like a bush made of ants
@@annaexists7894 take care of that colony you're a really good person other people just contain ants they see but you're different you're helping the ants and your grandpa #antloveforever 😊
Growing up, (I live near the fields or bukid) yearly, there's really a time when there are lots of winged ants flying around in our house. Some would lose their wings and crawl around and would just disappear the next day. Now I know what they were doing 🤣 from the Philippines here!

Hi everyone & Ant Canada, just wanted to say I love watching your video's every week with dad and just wanted to say that I love Ants and another interesting fact is that my name has Ant in it. Yours truly ANTonio.
Awesome family bonding! Ant love forever!

Why do I keep watching this channel whenever I get drunk alone?? There's just something so soothing and sexy about your voice man...Keep it up!
Oh, good it's not just me.
you creep me out
Finally a good video! AntsCanda is coming back!!
TBH if you watch every single video I make, there is always a group that wants something else. I try to make content for all kinds of AC Family preferences but as they say, "You can't please everyone." If this is the type of content you like, you just need to wait for it. Ant love forever!
i love ever single video personally .
dont listen to this guy, all your vids are really good!
AntsCanada I love the classic ant videos like this. You also need to start promoting your ant farms and GAN project to keep popularity upon it. I feel since you started making the naturalistic setups I just lost interest. It’s no different then seeing them outside. Using artificial nests and having success with it brings a hole new level of fun and interest.
Any one watching from 2019????

All I could imagine is that last kid leaving the top of the container off and that ant coming out and making a nest in his room. He would get wrecked heck anyone would get wrecked! It's really cool to see that anyone can legitimately do this. When your watching this in a UA-cam video it seems very unlikely but man this is awesome!
I wish I could have an ant farm!! It would be so fun, and cool! Btw I subscribed! 😊😁
You should try! It is definitely awesome!

You can always just make one.
If you have a saltwater pool or know someone who does, it is a great place to look around for queens after a rainstorm. I don't know why but I found 4 queens (all mated) near my saltwater pool and could not find them anywhere else.
Myrmica are pretty nasty indeed. We usually have one or two colonies of them in the garden and getting stung by them is not really a pleasant experience. Whilst they are not so incredibly demobilizingly painful like for example bullet ants their stings will hurt and itch for days and the sting zones also have a tendency to swell, comparatively as if you touched a stinging nettle. One sting(actually it's not really a sting but rather a bite since they don't have stingers. Instead they will bite your skin and then immeditately inject their acid into the wound) isn't that bad actually, however if you somehow upset them for example by stepping onto their nests(which happens quite easily because they don't have proper ant hills but instead just a shallow underground den with a bit of loose earth on top) you can easily contract like ten bites at the same time which is just awful.
Darthplagueis13 ever felt Pogonomyrmex ?
No. They only life in america and I currently don't really have the means or ressources to import or keep ants, so my experience is limited to middle european species.
Darthplagueis13 ah I see
I always thought he looked like the fuy from the imaginary axis
AC Question of the week: it's a good place for looking for queen ants because nearby it has a forest, so there are many ants there, and the pavement's coulour contrasts with the ants colour. And queen ants usually like to make their nests in pavements
... It's great to see so many youngsters are out there growing up with nature. >):^]
Technology is grate and all, but nothing beats the great outdoors.

Yesterday I was in my garden and I saw a fire ant colony and it had just rained so I saw a Alates but it was only one
You should try keeping Golden Butt Ants for a try🤩
This needs to be a tv series
Just because I watch this channel I saw my first nuptual flight today. I was walking into work and saw a bunch of ants swarming and around them were dozens of queens. It was amazing. Even more amazing was that there were dozens more walking up the side of the building.

+AntsCanada Thanks! I got my eyes out for manica this year. Btw thanks so much for replying I didn’t expect that to happen!!! It’s so awesome that even though you have almost 2 mill subs you still respond to comments. Most yters don’t do that and that’s what makes the ant community so unique and special.
What ants do we have in BC other than common black, sugar, carpenter and red?
As a fellow BC resident (coastal bc) I'm always curious to what ants are around.
This is the type of content I like !
At the start I think a major was eating a stag beetle
I have one question. During rainy seasons, winged ants occasionally go to our house and usually stick on walls in groups. They are very identical to each other. Is this a nuptial flight and do I have high chances of getting an ant queen?
Actually don't catch these, they need to break off the wings to be mated hince you can start a ant farm with her eggs. These most likely are still in fertile and some winged ants are not queens
Actually, ants that have broken off their wings haven't necessarily mated, and those that haven't could have mated.Watch them a bit, then snatch up a few that look to be queen ants.
Small heads are males, i have four mated queens who refuse to rip off their wings so...
I could only find one...
One of my queens still had her wings, she now has eggs.
You know what I did to catch ants were to attract with a promising home
Any one watching from 2024??😂😂❤❤🎉🎉
Yes
Me too lol
Me
Ya
I have a queen ant but i dont have test tube.. what would i do????
You should fertilize that queen immediately, your highness
Its fertilzed
SAME PROBLEM!!!!
Also what to feed htem?
Shank it
any container should do as long as you have water, small holes for air and some food for your queen and the larvae from the eggs she (hopefully) produces
This is like playing pocket ants
Wtf there is a lot of mold in most of their test tubes.
The ants can take it.
+AntsCanada
Didnt you yourself say in some video, that you should renew the test tube if mold is growing too much tho?
But that isn’t too much probably
Yes, lots of mold could be bad, but a little mold is ok.
JUST COUGHT A Queen ANT!!! (Carpenter)
Gamer 3332 that's hard to believe when u put a Minecraft picture and u play ALOT of games
Congrats, I hope the colony does well.
why thank you for thinking i dont have a outside life other than youtube
They always do nuptial flights near my house, I have tons of pictures of queen ants by my front door lol but scared to actually start a farm. But I love to watch them in the wild
I live in Canada and I wish I could see you :(
Punta ka sa Manila (Go to Manila)
Now I have a reason to watch ants...
To avoid all these points so I do not find queen ants...
Ngl, some queen ants are very majestic and beautiful
I saw a carpenter ant queen the other day while on a walk. She was on the ground, so I assume she had already mated and was about to shed her wings. I unfortunately had nothing to capture her with, and my mother was with me, so she wouldn’t have approved of me trying to pick it up anyways. :(
Thx for greeting us AC family 👨👦👧👩👴👵
I’ve seen a few nuptials fights in my life! It’s insane and has quite the odor!
