Sugar Feeder
The sugar feeder is a practical solution for the safe and clean supply of thick food sources such as invert sugar, honey or agave syrup for your ant colony. It consists of a robust PLA base with integrated drinking openings and is supplied with a matching glass vial. The bottle stands upside down in the base and releases small amounts of liquid through the fine openings for the ants to drink.
Thanks to its simple design, the feeder is easy to fill, clean and reuse.
Note:
The openings are designed in such a way that they are suitable for most common ant species. However, smaller ant species such as Lasius or Pheidole may enter the bottle and drown. In addition, some ant species tend to plug the openings with sand, soil or nesting material, which can lead to the feeder leaking unintentionally. It is therefore recommended to check the sugar feeder regularly.
