I just wanted to share this little gadget I use to feed honey water to my ants. You can get one at most stores that sell fishing tackle. You can actually push it right into the test tube without removing the cotton plug without worry about small ants escaping out.

Nice. Here's what I use. The tip is about .5 mm. These are normally used to apply solvent in acrylic welding.

Interesting.

I must be lazy.  I just buy a few syringes from the drug store...  8 cents each with needle tip.

I guess those would probably poke right through the cotton with ease.

Is worm blower the name of the bottle?
