Why there are many ant surrouding at your hamster cages?

Answer 1

A "fishy" odor may be a sign of wet tail. Does the fur surrounding your hamster's tail have a wet,brown liquid on it? If so veterinary care is recommended as wet tail can be deadly if left untreated.

A strong odor coming from the cage is a good indication that it needs to be cleaned. Cages should we cleaned at least once per week- consisting of removing all bedding material and thoroughly rinsing the cage and all contents with a water and soap solution. Antibacterial dish soap, vinegar or specialty cage cleaner can be used- but never bleach, as this can harm your pet and removes his scent, confusing him on which spots he cleans, eats and pees.

Answer 2

Ants may be attracted to your hamster's cage if there is food or spills within or around it. Ants are attracted by the scent of food, so it is important to keep the cage clean and any food securely stored. Placing the cage on a platform or using barriers like moats can help prevent ants from getting into the cage.

Answer 3

The hamsters cage is a very good food source for the ants. (As there is food in it the ants can also take)

Answer 4

If you want them out, then you have to furally wash the cage down, clean the cage.
