Feeding & Suitability Guide
Why ants need carbohydrates: The primary energy source for adult workers to fuel foraging, brood tending, and nest maintenance.
Safety against drowning: Never offer large pools of liquid honey or sugar water to small colonies without a cotton plug or liquid feeder. Workers can easily get stuck and drown.
Hygiene: Replace sugar solutions every 2–4 days before fermentation occurs.
