Description

The Ant season will resume again in May.

Garden Ants - Available May to early-September (weather and stock dependant).

You will receive between 10 and 15 garden ants only, no habitat or food. These are common garden ants and can be released to nature.

You will need to provide fresh water every day - natural spring water is best. Cornflakes or apples are the main diet of the ants! They also enjoy the inside meat of a sunflower seed or dry dog food, feed this diet once a week.

If your habitat requires set up, please order the ants for a future date to give you enough time, as they will need to be transferred upon arrival.

Use with the Super Forest Ant (this kit has a 2 week set-up period).

Ants are notorious escape artists. We recommend all precautions should be taken to cover all escape routes on any type of ant habitat - despite any claims they are escape-proof. Cover the area with sticky tape and pierce an air hole with a pin. No refund will be given in the event of these ants escaping.

Adult Supervision is required.
