I've recently bough a L.Niger Queen with the Antstore starter set and some PTFE.
They still get past it :S i have about 2 cm of it but they can get along the glass glue/sealant along the edges.
How do i stop this easily? for now i have used Vaseline and placed them in a tray of water but i would like to get the PTFE safe too :)

One of the sticky threads has an FAQ on this.

You are meant to cut away the silicon with a razor blade. Only do it where you are going to put the PTFE.

Hello Pol and welcome.

The PTFE has no effect when it is a used on silicon. So like damon said, you need to cut always the silicon in the corners.
