We're away June 20–July 4, so the shop is paused — this keeps your live antlions from sitting in transit while we're out. Thanks for your patience! We reopen July 5.

About Antlion Farms

A small family business sharing the wonder of antlions.

Antlion Farms is a small, family-run business. We raise and gather healthy antlions — the remarkable larvae that dig cone-shaped sand traps to catch their prey — and ship them with everything a curious kid, classroom, or gift-giver needs to watch them in action.

Antlions (sometimes called doodlebugs) are one of nature's best science lessons: patient, fascinating predators that turn a little dish of sand into a tiny arena. We've been delighting families and teachers for years, and we hand-pack every order ourselves.
