Ants cost extra May 02, 2010
By B. Hall
I just got my ant farm, only to discover that the ants cost an extra $4. That's not a lot, but it adds 33% to the cost. And it seems misleading when the product description says "Includes order form to receive live ants by mail."

The Ants Dropped Like Flies. Jul 29, 2006
By J. Weinberger
The one truly amazing thing about Uncle Milton's Ant Farm was just how quickly the ants died. Perhaps ants just aren't cut out to live in a cheesy plastic enclosure propped up on somebody's bookshelf in a high-rise apartment in Manhattan waiting for a crumb to drop miraculously from the heavens. That's my guess.

 House of Insect Horrors Jun 24, 2010
By R. Rodriguez
I bought this thinking, hey wouldn't it be neat to have an ant farm? And it was pretty neat. I never order the ants offered with the product after hearing tales of dead ant tubes showing up in peoples mailboxes, and my girlfriend and I started catching them around the house. It was a sporty little affair at first, but they didn't thrive in there and starting dying, filling the place with little ant corpses. What started as a fun experiment ended as a depressing reminder of how fleeting life can be. I...I just need a little time to myself right now.

 Dont Buy It!!! Jul 27, 2009
By A. Duffy
"amazon boy"
It takes them 4 weeks after you main away to get the ants I bought this product and it tells you to put the ants in the fridge when you get them to "calm" them so i did that when I put them in the container 25 RED BITING AND STINGING ANTS came out i had to catch then with a tissue 2 bit so hard their heads got stuck on it. Whenever you open the lid the ants come racing out. All within a day my whole ant farm died. Who wants to buy red ants???
DO NOT BUY IT!!!

 Great Jan 29, 2010
By Aaron Jankowski
I bought two of these, hooked them up, and they're absolutely fantastic. For the price, they're strong enough, the plastic is cheap, of course, but you get what you pay for. As long as you're careful with the product (you're not supposed to be handling it often anyway), it's a great small investment.
The only valid complaint I see here is the one regarding the ants. I didn't buy my ants from them because it said it could take anywhere from 2-10 weeks to send them, depending on the weather. I live in Wisconsin, and it was winter. I wasn't going to wait for THEM to decide when to ship my ants.
I ordered my ants from another website (google lifestudies)
These ant farms aren't going to compare to a wood/glass farm, but for the price, they'll exceed your expectations.
