BeeMat and BirdMat NEW IN

BeeMat the easy way of providing flowers bees need and love and BirdMat the easy way of providing natural feed to attract birds to you garden have been launched at Angell Pets.

BeeMat

Sowing normal wildflower seedsinto a prepared bed actually produces a quite low gemination rate (20-30%). Using the BeeMat and BirdMat unique system of biodegradeable membranes and commercial horticulture grade seed produces germination rates of around 85% – much higher, giving a lot more growth, resulting in more flowers for the bees.

BeeMat comes in a handy (easilly postable!) pack of a 2 metre long, 50cm wide strip. This can be cut to any size to fit pots or planted in a strip on prepared ground.

BeeMat

The top layer of the BeeMat strip is a weak paper that enable water and light to pass through and the seedlings to break through when germinated. The bottom layer is a patented membrane that prevents the red light necessary for seed germination from passing through thus inhibiting the germination of unwanted annual weeds already in the soil. This aids the growth of the BeeMat plants by preventing competition from invasive weeds. Putting a layer of soil over the BeeMat wieghts it down and prevents perennial weeds from lifting the mat and also inhibititting their growth.

BirdMat BeeMat

BirdMat is a new companion product to BeeMat. Using the same technology but different seeds BirdMat provides seed heads to encourage birds into your garden. BirdMat works in exactly the same way producing the same excellent reults in terms of germination and growth and can be cut to size in the same way or planted in strips.

BirdMat

BirdMat also comes in a handy, postable pack making both BirdMat and BeeMat ideal gift items for birthdays, mothers day and due to the long shelf life of the seeds (much longer than packet seeds), Christmas as well.

BirdMat

So get out the wellies and start preparing the ground for you BeeMat and BirdMat (and coming soon ButterflyMat) and have a summer full of the smells, sights and sounds of a wildlife friendly garden which benefits you and much needed habitat and food that benefits the bees and the birds. You can purchase BeeMt and BirMat instore or online in Angell Pets webstore.

New range of invertebrate tanks now in stock

We have just negotiated a new deal with a local invertebrate and frog vivarium manufacturer to supply Angell Pets ® branded equipment. These high quality tanks have just made it into stock this week.

So far, the range includes glass vivaria for mantids and other arboreal insects, arboreal spiders and terrestrial or burrowing spiders and other invertebrates (such as centipedes and millipedes). Over time we will expand the range further and we can also have custom sizes made to order. Keep a look out soon for a range of amphibian tanks.

Inverebrate faunarium

The smallest vivarium in the new range is a 20cm (8″) glass cube, with a steel mesh vent in the back and fully opening sliding glass top that is self locking. This makes for a very secure tank for smaller spiders or other inverts.

invertebrate tank

The mantis tank is a 20cmx20cmx30cm arboreal glass viv. with a fully steel meshed top (including a support bar to aid fitting of branches etc.) and sliding, front opening, self locking doors. Suitable for all mantids and stick insects.

mantis tank

The arboreal spider tank is similar to the mantis tank but instead of a fullly meshed top it has a glass top with a mesh vent to enable/encourage nesting in the top corner and to help maintain higher humidity if required.

tarantula tank

The terrestrial/burrowing invetebrate tank is larger at 40cmx30cmx25cm high. It has a full width steel mesh vent (not aluminium, which a tarantula will just rip to shreds with its fangs!) and fully opening sliding, self locking glass doors (The maker held an empty one upside down and gave it a good shake by way of demonstration and the doors didn’t move). For cleaning the whole lid assembly can be removed. These are secure tanks, suitable for the most persistent escape artist.

invertebrate vivarium

As the manufacturer is local (we collect the stock ourselves) and whilst quality is maintained but costs are kept to a minimum (no expensive advertising and marketing to be paid for), prices are very keen. You get a lot of specialist equipment for your money.

Inverebrate cube £13.99

Mantis tank £19.99

Arboreal spider tank £19.99

Invertebrate tank £29.99

All are available on our website. These make fantastic display tanks for you favourite invertebrate and compliment our existing range superbly.
