When I opened my palm, I saw an ant with a completely flattened abdomen, and a look of shock flew across my face. In just a few moments though, she straightened herself up and walked all the way up to my pointer finger.

These are ants that do well with a humidity source but can fare just as well in a dry wooden setup if provided extra water sources. You will find that Crematogaster can explode in population if provided a source of heat (preferably above 25 degrees Celsius), and do especially well when fed large amounts of protein. Overall, these are extremely fast growing ants, and some of the best for beginners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis product includes both C. lineolata and C. cerasi.
