Does the bottom snap on securely enought to keep Ants out?? Thank you!!

the bottom doesn't snap all the way around like the old Tupperware ones used to, it only snaps at the two places where you see the two clasps. The clasps definitely holds it shut to comfortably tote a cake, but I think if ants wanted to get in, they probably could. It's a really nice carrier though.

I'm not sure because the Cake Server was bought as a gift for my daughter, but I'm sure if there were a problem she would have told me so. I apologize for not being able to give you a more definitive answer.

I've never had an issue before and I have set it outside with a cake inside! I bake all the time (its what I'm in school for actually!) And this is the only carrier that I've ever trusted. It snaps on very tightly and I will use the handle to carry things without having to worry about it busting open. The seal use great-im almost positive that ants could not get in! Hope this helps :)

I haven't run into that problem but my best guess would be that it does keep ants out. The 2 snaps hold the rim of the cover securely in a groove around the bottom & will hold even the heaviest cake, but it isn't air tight so I couldn't guarantee that the ants can't get in (but they'd have to be very tiny).

It seems to me that the angle of the feeder keeps them off. They fly by and check it out, but then move on. As an added bonus, we wipe a couple of drops of vinegar on the pole near the base when we refill the feeder, keeping the ants off.

Yes, but then ants could crawl up the sides. If you hang it, the ant moat stops any ants that crawl down the hook.

I keep this bin in the garage so not sure. It does snap shut and there is a seal around top lid of bin and also the small opening lid which keeps bugs including small ants out. Hope this help.

Mines is on my deck as well, you cant attach the bottom, but it does hang low enough touching the deck and keeps the bugs out.

The top of the container is flimsy and there are holes where the lid attaches. Ants get in that way. They can also climb right in through the bottom where the tray fits into the base.

I just ckd my bread box & it seals up pretty tight.. .ants would have a heck of a time trying to get in..

I do not have problems. Put water in the small middle cup, this should help with ants. To prevent bees, make sure the feeder lid does not have any spilled sugar on it at all.

I would assume yes, since they are air-tight. Ants aren't even attracted so they are really air-tight. Since air is less dense than water, I think it is safe to say they are water- moist proof. Haven't tried it out though.

it closes pretty tight--if you have strong critters they might be able to pop it up,but i don't think so--it's pretty secure.

This is like any other plastic container. As far as an airtight seal I would say no. But once the lid is on it seems to fit fine. I would say it should keep ants out as long as it's on correctly.

The bottom is held in place, barely & not very well, by small strips of Velcro. The top is securely zippered.

I don't know for sure but I don't think would be airtight. I have never had an ant problem with the product, however, but I only use it periodically. I don't use it every day.

It seems quite secure. We put bug repellant sticker. Also the net did not let any in. We only used the tent once so far and liked it.

If you want to keep ants from getting into the meal worms, yes this ant trap would work. This trap is about 95% effective. I have seen, on rare occasion, ants making a raft out of their bodies and walking across the floating bodies to the other side.

It slips into place tightly (but not too tight). There isn't a snap, it just fits flush around the edge. My concern would be the giant feeding hole which is more than enough space for a cat to stick a paw in. The cat could grab a fish or the lid and pull it right off. We have a cat too and covered that huge hole with clear packing tape (on the top and bottom side of the lid) to make it safer. There is a smaller hole for a heater power cord in the back of the lid. We just use that to feed.

You have to take it down and remove the top. The center area that looks open is for a water barrier for ants. Taking it down helps because it gives you a chance to rinse it out and keep the feed fresh.
