• 1x ant farm (30x15x10 cm)
• 1x acrylic lid
• 1x feeding station

Construction

The construction of the AntHouse Starter Kit is simple and straightforward. Start by putting the sand in the T-shape. It is important to moisten the sand before adding the ants. The opening that serves as the connection point to the feed box should be closed with the sand. This opening allows the ants access to the feeding area and allows excess water to drain away. Once the ants start digging, they will find and use this opening.

Caution: Do not wet the entire sand. Approximately 5 ml – 10 ml of water is sufficient.
