AntCant

AntCant prevents ants from crossing a very slick surface, stopping them from gaining access to your solitary bee nest.
Ants are attracted to the smell of pollen loaves and can also kill developing bees.

Instructions:

Take immediate action when ants are found in a bee house.

For smooth surfaces, ensure the surface is completely dry and free of loose material. Turn the nozzle to the spray position. Hold the sprayer about 3-4 inches above the inclined surface (>30°) and apply a thin, even coating. Allow the surface to fully dry. Reapply as needed.

For non-smooth surfaces like wood, use the included aluminum tape (packing tape or metallic tape will also work for larger areas) to create a border around your bee house. Follow the above instructions to apply AntCant on the tape.
