I purchased the Anthill to transfer our Harvester ants from a smelly gel farm where they hardly moved and didn't dig tunnels. I was hoping that having sand in the Anthill would encourage them to transport the sand around. As soon as we dropped the ants into the Anthill, they started moving the sand. By the next morning, the ants had already found their way over the top and had started to dig tunnels in the back. The kids (2 and 5 years old) have been fascinated by the ants digging tunnels and seeing new tunnels every day. The kids have always been fascinated by ants and have been observing them in nature. I'm not entirely convinced that we need ants as "pets". It has been fun for the kids, however. Eventually, we'll set them free because "they will be much happier out there". This anthill is a good product if you would like to keep and observe ants indoors.

My daughter is really into all things insect related, so for her 6th birthday we decided this would be a great gift. And it was. She's been captivated by the ants' activities, i.e. digging tunnels, how they deal with the dead ones (yes, there were dead ones) and how they eat. Would recommend to a bug-loving friend for sure!
