Terrible design
The gel does not cover all the areas leaving a gap on the sides that the ant would fall into and be unable to escape.

With two young kids and pets its advisable to make it very difficul...

Defective
Our gel does not look at all like the pictures or other customers'. Ours is a small block shriveled up, not taking up most of the space like others. Did we get a defective one? Confused! Would love a new one.

This is not a good product
The ants have no idea what to do with this gel stuff other than carry chunks of it elsewhere. Doesn't seem like they like it inside. I ordered two of these things. One for each kid and one of the gel containers collapsed on the ants after they had dug tunnels and made a home for themselves. I just feel bad for the ants.

I won't buy this again
The ants died after a few days, now what ? Do we just throw it away.. seems like a waste. The kids just sits on top which made me feel uncomfortable as a parent and these harvester ants can bite! We put a small piece of tape over the top to give an ease of mind.

My kids are enjoying watching each day...
You do have to purchase the ants after you receive the kit. There is a coupon code included, making the ants just about $5. I was a bit disappointed with the added expense. It didn't take long for the ants to get to work. The pictures are about 72 hours after we put the ants in the container. The lid doesn't snap into place, which is not comforting to this mom that isn'...
