About Stateside Ants
The Leading Ant Shop of America
Stateside Ants is America's Ant Shop. Being a USDA-permitted company, we supply many species of ants to every continental state for antkeepers across the country! When you purchase a queen or colony from Stateside Ants, you can feel confident that you will receive healthy, ready-to-grow ants. Our goal is to provide you an extraordinary antkeeping experience with extraordinary queen ants, from California to New York, and all in between. If you're hoping to buy queen ants, you've come to the right place!

Fertile Queen Ants
Our queen ants for sale are always sold only after we're certain they've been fertilized, and will be able to produce a colony of their own.

Clean Test Tubes
Our ants are sent to our customers in test tube setups. When we send you a colony or queen, you can be certain it will be in a habitable, clean test tube.

Healthy, Live Ants
Our emphasis is on healthy, ready-to-grow ant colonies. We are dedicated to only sending out satisfactory ants. We will not list any ant queens or colonies from stock if they are not healthy.

Live Arrival Guaranteed
Your ants are guaranteed to arrive live, or you get a replacement. Casualty is rare in shipping and even rarer after shipping. However, if your ants unluckily die within days of arrival, contact us for help. We think if you paid for the ants, you should get to keep them, with little exception.
