This beautiful Camponotus is very active and agile. Small colonies can be kept in small/tall tanks with adequate room for climbing. The animals have strong majors and a beautiful coloring. Terrariums should be enriched with various plants. If the nest is disturbed, Camponotus albosparsus attack immediately. Small colonies can be kept together with large terrestrial species. It is now known that colonies can be kept quite normally in different ant nests. They are considered undemanding and simple to keep.
