Dimensions: 183x160x20 mm
Material: diggable material on resin basis.
Description: The Terra nidum (lat. earth nest) plate made of diggable material is perfect for our ANTCUBE ant farms. It can be used dry as well as wet. It is also suitable for many ant species, especially those nesting in sand and in (dead) wood. It can be used instead of sand-loam mixtures or the nest inserts made of cork. The advantage of this nest is that the moistening of the plate is easier to control due to a well visible discoloration and the color of the plate offers a great contrast to the usually darker coloured ant species. In addition, the inner panes of the ant farm cannot be soiled with substrate, as is the case, for example, with sand-clay mixtures, which allows a perfect view of the nest. Our nest material also has a much firmer structure, so that tunnels and chambers dug by ants do not collapse.
Note: The natural color shade can vary between beige / sand and light brown. The color shade does not affect the quality.
Due to manufacturing, the dimensions may vary by +/- 1mm
