Can you please explain it more detailed....... just kill em maybe if there arent a lot, and try to find the source where the come from. If you find it and they still come, cut a piece (bigger) of tape, put food on the middle of it, maybe you can trap them for a while. If tthe still come, try to buy some ant traps: that kind i know works simply: the ants bring the poisonous food in the hive and poison themselves and the other members of the family, including queen, so the colony dies!

I had the same problem. I read some where that some one used vegetable oil to keep the ants from getting to their feeders. I took a large tray and placed my cricket container in the middle of it and then filled the tray up with vegetable oil. I have yet to have any ants getting into my crickets. Hope that helps.

use windex it kills ants instantly... less harsh then raid

I had that problem too. The key is to remove any feeders that die immediately. ants can smell that a mile away. After so long they stopped getting to my crickets.

Find a way to suspend your feeder container
