Description:
This expandable starter set for all leafcutter ant species contains, in addition to the optimally adapted formicarium, the appropriate accessories for keeping these ants. The basins are easy to use for feeding and cleaning. The large holes (27 mm) and tubes not only make it easy to observe the ants, they also allow the animals to remove large pieces of leaf. The stainless steel mesh inserts ensure good ventilation and are robust against mechanical impact. Even large colonies of leaf-cutter ants, which are very fond of cutting, are unable to penetrate them. The sturdy tube connectors are also absolutely bite-proof. T The new "Mini Thermo- Hygrometer" can be placed on the ground or sticked with double sided tape on the backside and displays the climate values. If necessary, the humidity can be increased using the spray bottle.
Important: Please moisten the substrate before use so that the mixture can bind and develop a firm hold in the ant farm. In addition, if the substrate is too dry and dusty, the ants' airways may be blocked and, in the worst case, the animals may suffocate.
Notes on production
The glass is cut to size in accordance with DIN 1249 with a tolerance of +/- 1 mm. Additional escape protection is essential for extremely small ant species.
