Amen to the garage sale vac. The cheapest one around.

So none of you guys are using the pitfall method? I can get 500 to 1000 per nest and be done with about 10 nests in an hour or so. Sometimes I can even get up to 2000 if the nest is just swarming with activity. We are starting to see a lot of activity here finally.
Speaking of swarming, there is a black pogo in NM and S.E. AZ that will literally swarm anything that moves toward their nest. I've tried to collect them several times but it's very dicey. Not like the rugosus or barbatus I am used to.

It's funny to hear others ant stories. My wife thinks I'm the only fool out there collecting.

How is the activity in Texas anyways? It's starting to get hot here and the green of spring is now a decided brown in much of the Sonoran Desert.
