Bee hive ant moat / trap by ESF
Avoid ants terrorising your bee hive.
Use a moat!
Goal: to be printed thin and small (as you may need a lot of them)
cup to be filled with oil or water, lid to avoid pollution
bee hive load is transferred by hanger bolt
used a hanger bolt M8x70
level the lid by use of a thin nut or raise the centre cylinder (red)
(on windy locations maybe use a 2nd nut on top of the lit. I didn't use the 2nd nut for an easier re-fill)
Drill four shallow small holes in your hive bottom frame to rest over the tips. In softer wood you may press the hive on the sharp tips.
This is my second project ever. I would appreciate some help with the following:
TO DO:
. selector to separately export parts and do not export the bolt
