Pre-prepared test tube for the queen
The finished tube is already ready to insert a fresh queen or colony with the first workers or to move the colony from the old dirty tube to the new one. For this tube, the relative humidity (RH) is around 70 to 85% RH, for poorly made test tubes up to 99%.
Material plastic, standard size 10 ccm (ml). Inside, cotton wool is used to separate water. A filter cotton is used as a lid, through which the needle can be easily pierced and honeydew can be dripped onto the ants.
Recommended for beginning ant keepers who have no experience how to prepare such a test tube. If you have any questions about the production of these tubes, write to me at the bottom right through the chat window, I will be happy to advise you on how to do it for free.
