20x20x1 acrylic ant's nest, perfect for medium sized colonies. It has a plaster layer to keep a better humidity level inside the nest. The visibility is also improved. It includes a foraging area (with lid). The humidity system is located in both sides of the nest..
Easy to clean due to its anchors with screws.
To moisten the nest, use a syringe with water and wet the green foam in a way that it does not absorb more water but allowing the water to spread out and the plaster layer on the floor can absorb it, so that the whole plaster is wet. You must be careful to avoid flooding the galleries. The green foam must always be wet.
The built-in foraging area is used to feed the ants. You can put a trough and a water trough there, using a product to prevent escapes through this area.
Put the ants inside the nest through the foraging area. Pour out the content of the test tube directly into the foraging zone, always being extremely careful.
It has a hole to connect another nest or an auxiliary foraging box. Don't forget to block the hole with some cotton.
Suitable for all types of species and sizes, as long as they are not exceptionally big nor exceptionally small, from colonies with more than 25 workers.
CAUTION: Don't clean with alcohol or another product but soapy water. The acrylic material could get broken. Don't even use talcohol (talcum powder dissolved in alcohol). If still used, it will be under the responsibility of the customer.
Acrylic with Messor barbarus.
