£7.99

The Ant Farm Heating Mat for Ants Nest Small 5V 3W is a must addition to any not native, harvester or exotic ant colony setup. This heating mat is designed to provide a comfortable and warm environment for your ants to thrive in. The small size of this mat makes it ideal for use with smaller ant farms and terrariums. With a low voltage of 5V and a power output of 3W, this mat is both safe and energy-efficient. Ensure the health and well-being of your ant colony with the Ant Farm Heating Mat Small 5V 3W.

Please NOTE:

Please NOTE: You must heat only 1/4 of the ant farm's area, or you might cook the ants alive! Avoid heating the watering area to prevent condensation inside the ant nest. Please see the photos for your reference.

For test tubes, we recommend using a heating cable instead!

If you use a heating mat to warm a test tube setup, you must heat just a small fraction of the test tube (10-15mm), the opposite part of the water reservoir, to avoid excessive humidity and condensation.

Keep an eye on the ant farm's temperature using an Infrared Thermometer or similar and switch the heating mat off if necessary.

UK Live Arrival Guarantee

Every queen is checked and fed by hand before dispatch. Best Ants UK guarantees your queen ant arrives alive.

If she does not, we replace her — no argument, no restocking fee.

Live colonies are dispatched Monday, Wednesday and Friday only. This is deliberate: ants are never held in a depot over a weekend. Orders placed outside those days go out on the next dispatch day, packed the same morning they travel.

Bred in-house in Surrey since 1997. Shipped Royal Mail Tracked, mainland UK. Free delivery over £99.

Queen ants are living animals. We only dispatch colonies we would keep ourselves.

We are here because of you. Thank you.
