I just send you an email seconds ago. When i said sticks i meant if i could just give them part of plants or i needed to plant the plant in a box like if it was the nature?

My english is not very good and its hard to explain but i hope you get it, if not, well ask again

:)

Hello Banani!

You can´t took only a part of a plant. The aphids use the closed system "plant" - their nutrition "highways" are under pressure and so they can get some food for their own. When you cut the plant, you loose the pressure and so the aphids can´t get food and so they will fall from the plant and search for another plant.


Now to your order: The parcel hat been send on 11.05.2004 and the DHL service said that it took 6-9 days. Just for information: we changed the post service and soon the parcel only took 75-96h to portugal, better or? :O)

Its all i needed to know.

Let me get it straight:

You send it at 11 so it will arrive within 17 and 20 of mai right?

One more question:

I saw some pictures of ant farms that add an open box. The ants wouldn't get out because of a kind of thing that its was on the wall. You sell something like that but one friend told me it was easy to make. Do you know a way so i can make the substance, because now its to late to order :(

Hello Banani!

I´m not sure what your friend is meaning because there are a lot of possibilities. You can use normal vegetable oil or talkum which is avaible in the apothecery (here in germany).

Why don´t you want to use a safety guard net. For me is the best to be sure that the ants can´t escape. I only have once work with this and then never again. But this is also a matter of taste, everybody find another solution as the best.
