We have succeeded in observing zero-resistivity in newly discovered intercalation superconductors Ax(C2H8N2)yFe2-zSe2 (A = Li, Na) with Tc = 45 K, using the sintered pellet samples. The electrical resistivity, \r{ho}, in the normal state is metallic and Tconset defined in the $\rho$ measurements, is as high as ~ 57 K. We have also investigated effects of the atmospheric exposure in Lix(C2H8N2)yFe2-zSe2. It has been found that both the crystal structure and superconductivity are maintained at least up to several days, indicating this material is comparatively resistant to the atmospheric exposure.
