Description
Ytong is a brand name. The material itself is called aerated concrete.
Due to its water-retaining properties, the material is well suited for keeping ants.
Many species from dry and humid habitats can be kept in the soil.
Depending on the ant species, it is advisable to fill the chambers with soil substrate.
We recommend to connect an external arena to the nest.
Please note:
Aerated concrete is a very brittle and fragile material. For this reason, it is impossible to prevent corners and edges from showing slight breaks and unevenness due to the production process.
Therefore, these nests are also not suitable for very small ant species.
