Description

New Sunburst ant nectar 240ml.

This liquid food , developed in the USA by the ByFormica brand, has exceptional qualities :

– Formulated with a very precise pH to suit ants: boosts palatability.

– Helps identify feeding problems in ants: a healthy colony never refuses Sunburst.

– Compatible with ByFormica nectar drinkers

– Rich in carbohydrates AND minerals: better nutritional quality.

– Long shelf life at room temperature: 2 years unopened, up to 6 months after opening.

– Perfect balance between liquid texture and carbohydrate content: easy to consume.

The result: Sunburst ant nectar, a product that is highly attractive to ants and contains all the carbohydrates necessary for their energy needs.

ByFormica explains its approach: “During the development of this Sunburst 500ml ant nectar, we noticed that sugar water mixtures could ferment or develop bacteria, requiring frequent re-preparations, which risked resulting in unsuitable proportions. As a result, ants weren't always receptive to the food. To solve these problems, Sunburst was developed as a practical solution to replace conventional liquid solutions. Sunburst resists bacteria even without preservatives thanks to an alkaline pH that stimulates appetite and reduces bacterial growth.”.

The specific balance between pH and carbohydrate content also allows for the diagnosis of potential problems with rearing conditions: indeed, Sunburst ant nectar is so popular with ants that a refusal to feed would indicate a problem with rearing conditions or their health requiring treatment, and not a problem with the food itself

Caution: Nectar is not well-liked by certain species, particularly Messor, Atta cephalotes…

Ideally supplemented with protein-rich foods (insects, milk, protein-rich honeydew, etc.).
