It can be used as a founding nest for medium sized species such as Camponotus species in the Myrmentoma subgenus, or even as a mature nest for Temnothorax species. Some other genera that the nest will accommodate at various sizes are Colobopsis, Crematogaster, Pseudomyrmex, and Tapinoma. The nest’s 7 millimeter inside width and 6mm inside height is thin enough to mimic their natural nesting habitat, yet still provide comfortable space for the queens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis nest is extremely small, as it is for ants which nest in..sticks.
