The heating mat provides the following temperatures inside the ant farm:
- Low: 4 to 6 degrees Celsius higher than the ambient temperature
- Middle: 6 to 10 degrees Celsius higher than the ambient temperature
- High: 11 to 17 degrees Celsius higher than the ambient temperature
All the temperature measurements have been taken at 20 degrees Celsius. The temperatures may vary and depend on the Ant Farm's size.
Please NOTE:
You must heat only 1/4 of the ant farm's area or you might cook the ants alive! Avoid heating the watering area to prevent condensation inside the ant nest.
Keep an eye on the ant farm's temperature using an Infrared Thermometer or similar and switch the heating mat off if necessary.
