today i remembered that i read a "HOW TO DO IT YOURSELF" about plaster nests.
So i thought ... hmmmmm .... lets try it out.
I bought a box of "ROCHER" and ate them all ^^
Also i bought some "PLAY DOUGH" modelling material.
To build a plaster nest with all this stuff u just take the Rocher box and use the play dough
to form the negative form of the chambers and tunnels in the box. To do that you just
attach the Play Dough to the Rocher Box.
When your done with this step you fill the whole box with plaster and wait until its hardend.
Now you get the whole block out of the rocher box and pull out all the Play dough. Now you
should see all the tunnels and chambers that u made.
Just take the block and put it back into the Rocher box and...... zoooooom there you have your plaster nest.
My nest is hardening right now. I will upload pictures when its done. I made a lot of different chambers.
Some are deep, some are small , some are huge.....
Lets see what the little colony of Lasius niger likes the most
