I did something similar thanks to your videos 👍 But for me, when I start heating the nest to maintain the temperature at least 22-25 degrees, everything is always condensed. I don't know why 😭
@Dcolony
3 ай бұрын
You should have let the nest fully dried first buddy, before putting back the glass to use the nest. If that still happens just add more ventilation. I don't use heaters cause I'm in the tropics.

@@Dcolony I also thought about more ventilation, but I was worried about whether there would be enough moisture for the ants in this case

Try to completely dry the nest first buddy and try filling the tower again, I suspect the concrete is still moist inside, condensation happens when there's too much moisture
@Andrew-xc2qi

Can someone explain how the ants drink from these towers? Does water condense on the screen? I keep dragging my heals creating them because I guess I just don't understand how they get water to drink with this system.
