Description
Harvesters don't hunt. They gather seeds, crush them with their jaws and turn them into a nutritious paste for the larvae. The mix uses small grains the colony takes readily and even little workers can gnaw. It comes in a handy container with 15 grams of grain. That stock lasts a Messor colony 4-5 years, since they eat grams per month and dry seeds don't spoil. You can dispense exactly what you need without opening the whole stash.
What's included
- Container with 15 g of seed mix
- Lasts a Messor colony 4-5 years
How to use
Keep the container closed and the arena dry, because damp makes seeds mould. Dispense small portions, the colony will carry its own stash into the nest.
