Review on 🐜 Exploring Nature's Wonders with Uncle Milton Giant Ant Farm by David Golden

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nothing worthwhile comes easy

After having had about 4 of these ant farms in my 24 years of life and making the same mistakes each time, I decided I owed Uncle Milton a review. farms as a child. I don't know how or why, but my mother considered ant farms to be an important educational tool for children to learn the value of hard work. The lesson took hold and I am now in therapy to get rid of the destructive belief that my ability to do things for others creates a single purpose. Regardless, the yard itself comes first. I decided to remove the gaudy background because I don't want to be distracted from my little union. The ants themselves must be ordered separately. It takes a while to get there, but that's part of the fun. This is where it gets tricky: getting ants into your facility is no easy task. I'm not kidding when I tell you I've made this mistake twice, so please learn from me. After chilling my ants for 17 minutes (2 minutes longer than recommended because I wanted them to be very sleepy). I took her outside to try and lock her up. I knew it could go wrong and if it did, I wanted them to have an outdoor home instead of my studio apartment in the basement. Apple in the valve of a bicycle tire. Not only are the holes incompatible, but the longer they get out of the fridge, the bigger and faster they get crazy. It's the perfect storm as the operator (me) is shaking terribly and the ants are pissed as hell now. This whole situation ended with me spilling ants all over the place (yes I tried using a funnel, it didn't work) and then frantically using a stick to pick up each of the 30 ants (who are now roaming my patio). ) and throw them into their aviary without biting. It lasted over an hour and was very draining emotionally and physically. 24 ants made it to the end. 6 were lost in the open and 3 have since died through the mail after their journey. REST IN PEACE. It was worth it? Absolutely. I watch them now like a good god as they walk through the tunnels into the city. Highly recommend for quarantine (or other) fun. Only 4 stars.
