I have a strong dermisted colony. I am keeping it outside in my barn right now. Will this colony reestablish itself in the spring if I keep it in the barn over winter? I am in Ohio. I don't want to bring it inside do to the nature of the beast. Any information will help. Thanks.

But don't you think 1 post is sufficient? If someone is going to answer it they will answer one post. I would think they would freeze for the most part but I am not sure how they react to weather. They probably go dormant but I am not an expert.

insulate your colony and keep a light bulb, or if too cold even a heating lamp in there.
I did some research on the bugs, and you need to keep them warm, they do not go dorment, they will slow down and die, the warmer the better and faster they will work. I planed to have some working for me this fall, but time flys by, and the plan is on hold.
