Protective Sleeve

Protection Sleeve – The perfect darkening sleeve for test tube nests

A founding queen or young ant colony in a test tube primarily needs peace and darkness. Direct light can cause a lot of stress, which slows down egg-laying or even endangers the health of the colony. With our Protection Sleeve, you can effortlessly provide your ants with a safe and dark place!

Perfectly fits Test Tube Size L

The sleeve is made of sturdy cardboard and has the exact dimensions to slide seamlessly over our test tubes in **Size L (20 mm)**. The sleeve covers the test tube over its entire length, effectively blocking ambient light.

Effortless checking without disturbing the colony

Do you want to check the progress of the brood or the health of the queen? You can slide the Protection Sleeve off the tube in one smooth motion to view the ants, and then slide it back on just as easily. No more fuss with loose pieces of aluminum foil that make noise or cause vibrations!
