It is raining in NYC today and if it's sunny tomorrow it will be a good day to look for queen ants!
Pack few test tubes like this one in your purse just in case!
(If you don't have any test tubes you can wash out an old pill bottle, punch a large hole in the lid then cover the hole with mesh. This is fine as long as you have a place with water to keep the ant at home.)
Really just order some test tubes. It works so well. Your ants won't dry out and die. Who invented this technique I wonder?
