Pros

The most common ant farm seems to be the uncle milton one, along with brands that seem identical to uncle milton(probably just a relabel) the geosafari ant farm has 3 feeding holes, which makes it easier if you are trying to spread water to the whole ...  Read More

It’s fascinating & gets the whole family watching the tunnels form. This is great for classrooms and observing at home. Instructions are clear and it is amazing to watch the day to day activities of our ants.

Play sand is moist & easy to manipulate for the ants. You can clean the habitat and put in fresh sand and reuse it. One con about this product is it's difficult to moisten the sand.



Cons

Ants are very aggressive and can inflict painful stings in a surprisingly short period of time, can cause quite a bit of pain for up to four hours, and they are very pugnacious with a most painful sting. I got stung and have severe allergic reactions ...  Read More

The design of this ant farm is impractical. No sand and no coupon to be found. The ants are not sturdy at all.

The box was broken (torn) and obviously worn. There were smudges on the glass. There is a painted graphic on the top which blocks the view from one side. The lids were so cheap that a second of the three lids broke and did not close.

Warning: the type of ants they send can sting you and the sting is more painful than a bee sting.

Price


Still, they were affordable and much loved.


Of the ants die, for whatever reason, it is easy and inexpensive to order more.


The factory comes with a voucher to order ants- but you have to pay $4-$5 for the ants and they come in a little tube in the mail.

Shipping


The ants arrived safely in the mail and quickly set about building their colony.


Delivery was over thanksgiving holiday and we were not home to receive immediately.


Contacted company and they sent two tubes of live ants very quickly.


The coupon is for free shipping for the ants.

Packaging/appearance


It also comes with a booklet that tells you exactly what to do and how to do it and also gives some interesting information on ants!


The box did come damage but everything i need was included.


I didn’t notice if an ant coupon came with because my children opened the package and i’m going to catch wild ones anyway.

Competitiveness


Perhaps the manufacturer of the ant farm should consider a different type of ant.
