Argentine ants are largely considered an invasive pest in many areas. It is highly unlikely that you will find somebody or a business that sells them.
This should explain: An aggressive species, Argentine ant bites are not poisonous but can be irritating and cause allergic-type reactions in some people.
There are over 12,000 species of ants. Some of the most common ones are in the US. They are the Argentine ants, the Odorous House Ants, and the Fire Ants. The carpenter ant, the Pavement ants, and the Pharaoh ants are other species.
These are all types of ants
Ants that eat other ants.
Not all flying ants are carpenter ants. However, all carpenter ants can fly. There are various types of flying ants. Carpenter ants can be distinguished by their larger size and reddish tone to their body.
They are small, black ants measuring 2-3mm
they move stuff around
I live in Florida. Before I had Argentine ants (little black ants, bazillions of them) I had Fire ants. Fire ants are not very nice Ants since they bite and like to wait until several hundred of them are halfway up your pant leg so one of them can give the signal so they can all bite at the same time. I don't see any way of getting rid of these little guys, but I can say that since they showed up, the Fire Ants are GONE. The Argentine Ants are the Fire Ants enemy and did a fine job of wiping them out.

There are quite a few places where you can buy leaf cutter ants. The best place to find them is on the internet.

An Afro-Argentine is an Argentine of African descent.
Most species of ants defend their nests against other ants, whether of the same species or not. As a rule they keep away from strange nests and can tell their own nest by the way it smells different from strange nests. If one colony does in fact invade a strange nest, there will usually be a fight with many ants being killed; when that happens one of the colonies might be wiped out, with the eggs and larvae being eaten by the victors or taken home as "slaves". In either case, no super colony results.Sometimes because of inbreeding the different ant colonies smell so much alike that the smells do not set the ants fighting. When that happens ants move perfectly happily between colonies and a nest might include many queens. An example is when Argentine ants (the species Linepithema humile) invade a new country or an island because humans accidentally transported them. The result sometimes is that only one Argentine ant colony is imported and their young are so inbred that they form super colonies and kill all the local ants because the local ants are not inbred and so do not form super colonies and the Argentine ants outnumber them and kill them.
Yes, there are. You can buy them on bricklink
Ants are omnivores, meaning that they get there nutrients from both plant and animal sources. Different species will eat different things, but many ants will eat all manner of edible things, including scraps of food we leave behind.
No "The Argentine" is an alternative name for Argentina.
