+First, a 32x33 container was used to house antlions.
+ A cardboard barrier (and sufficient tape) was constructed to restrict it to a 24x24, 16x17, and 8x7 spaces.
+ Approximately 200 pounds, or four 50lb bags, of quartz sand were needed as a substrate.
+ Next, 40 antlions were obtained and 160 ants for food.
+ 40 plastic circular containers (at a six inch diameter and a four inch depth) housed the antlions and 1 housed the ants.
+ One meter stick, a six inch ruler, and a sharpie were obtained to measure and obtain data from trials.
+ Then, 40 toothpicks and a small plastic cup with a diameter of 2 inches were applied to record and manage the locations of antlions throughout the study.
+ A sieve was used to move the antlions from place to place and secure them.
