The more I can sell into these markets, the more ethical the marketplace becomes.

Kevin Kolbe is a really nice guy. Had a fantastic meeting with him. Hopefully the start of a really great relationship with Kevin and Gerhard. Frankfurt was amazing as well. Really enjoyed my time there.
I assume Kevin is fluent in English? Mr Kalytta is on par with AntKit as being the best ant supplier out there in my personal opinion. Of course Andrew is the best Leafcutting ant supplier.
Some would almost say it looks like you were an admin of Jons forum with those comments, Raj!

I've gone back and added the comment I meant to put in, Marco. So now your comment looks silly!

Wait, Jon has a forum? My opinion is not biased as I don't work for AntKit. Just a personal viewpoint as I have ordered from many European shops also.
