The AntserAnt-Proof Barrier (Beige)

After years of cluttering up the floor with flooded cookie sheets and various pieces of crockery, I bought one of these and-presto!-it was indeed the answer. Liked it so much bought another one. Great product.

Works well

I feed a community of TNRed cats and have had the worst problem with ants covering their bowls. I tried so many things (putting the bowl in a larger bowl full of water, putting it on a mat covered in water, raising the bowls) and each "solution" created its own set of problems.The reviews on this were good, so I decided to try it out. It's incredibly easy to set up and very easy to refill (I live on the coast where it's 100+ degrees). I've had it for a few months and have only had to refill it once.The *only* improvement I would suggest is to have a small clip or something to keep the top attached to the bottom. As soon as my cats are done eating, if there's even one piece of food left over, the possums come out and clumsily step on the antser to get to the bowls. They've knocked the top off quite a few times. That could be resolved by having some type of lock feature (though not *too* tight of a lock, because I enjoy the ease of taking the top off to put new water in).Overall, I'd buy this again, regardless of the price tag. I've had ants only once and that was when I knew I needed to refill. Otherwise, I enjoy watching them walk around the antser as if they're looking for David Bowie outside of the labyrinth.

I’m feeding two feral cats I inherited and was having problems with ants getting to the food before the cats. This works well. It’s sturdy and during the hotter days when the ants are the most active as long as you make sure no leaves or debris builds up on the sides that the ants can use to crawl up on top and you refill the soapy water it works great

Works perfectly. Keeps the ants out of our cat’s food. One of my best cat purchases.

At first, when I found out I was supposed to put Soapy water in the tray. I was not happy. I bought this to put a cat food dispenser on. I wanted something big enough. to accommodate the whole feeder. I feed feral cats. I am 90 years old. I cannot run outside and put water in this thing every two hours in the Florida heat. Then I suddenly realized I could put diatomaceous earth in the tray. It does a fantastic job keeping ants away. A thin layer will be sufficient. when I get ambitious tomorrow I will set it up and will let everyone know how it works, if I had not figured this out I would be really mad at myself or spending $50 on something I would have to tend every two hours

The animal shelter I work for uses these, they get donations and recommended to me. I’ve had zero problems with ants, plus they are a good size to keep any food from going on the floor and easy to clean. I use for my cats. Be sure to follow directions adding a little dish soap to the water under the top tray.

Using it in my kitchen to keep annoying ants out of my trash can. Placed my can on top and ant issues are gone! Placing soapy water in the tray ruins the ants day.
