## Overview

The BugSnub Ant Proof Tray is a 12x16 inch waterless feeding station featuring a patented mineral oil-based gel barrier that physically blocks ants from reaching pet food. Designed for durability and ease, it requires just one gel application per year, resists heat, and fits most automatic feeders. With 97% recycled materials and a mess-free setup, it’s the smart, sustainable solution for keeping cats’ and dogs’ meals pest-free.

## Description

Includes one black tray, four BugSnub legs with adhesive pads, and four packets of BugSnub insect blocking gel.

Review: Very effective and sized large enough for automatic feeder - This tray works really well and keeps the ants at bay. Has 4 legs that are surrounded by a gel (like vaseline) to keep ants from getting up on the tray. I was having tons of ants attack my cat's food and this has stopped them in their tracks. You can try to wage war against all the ants in your house with poison (and still lose) or you can get one of these for each cat or dog bowl. I have 2 and they are lifesavers, especially during warm weather when ants take over my kitchen. One of the best pet items I have ever purchased. No moving parts, unobtrusive, easy to clean, and does exactly what it is designed to do!
Review: WE HAVE A WINNER! - * BUG SNUB Ant Proof Tray - Waterless, Moat Free Cat and Dog Food Tray for Crawling Pest Free Pet Food Feeding Station * My apartment has been invaded by really small, black ants over the last week. I've sprayed for them. Maintenance has sprayed for them. If there's a morsel of food on the floor, there is a cluster (100s) of them on it in a few hours. I found this BUG SNUB tray on desertcart with same day delivery and installed (simple) it yesterday evening. I fed the furball who never eats ALL her food and waited... no ants. Yesterday morning there were hundreds swarming all over it. This morning... ZERO ants! I'm truly amazed how well this device works. Its construction is VERY solid with high-quality components. It doesn't slide around and assembly instructions make it easy to put together. The repellent comes in 4 packages, one for each leg, are stated to last a year and are available on desertcart. No... it's not cheap, but for what you get it's worth twice the price and I'd say it's a great value for the money as I can leave food in the bowl 24/7. Highly recommend. 60-DAY UPDATE, 9/03/25: Everything is still as stated above. The only ants I've seen are the 4-5 that got stuck in the repellent before the rest of the colony moved their food search elsewhere. This device is simply A-W-E-S-O-M-E .

## Features

- Assembled tray dimensions: 12x16x2 inches. Working area on tray 10.625 x 14.625 inches.
- BugSnub gel is a white mineral oil based, food grade product that creates a physical barrier that ants can't walk across.
- The gel is applied to the underside of upside down cups, so it's protected from large debris like dropped pieces of pet food.
- BugSnub gel is designed to keep its goopy consistency at a wide range of temperatures. So it won't melt or dry up even on a hot summer day.
- One application can last all year. Never spill or refill another messy liquid moat.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Isn't that "gel" just petroleum Jelly? Why is it so expensive?**
A: Thank you for your question.  BugSnub Insect Blocking Gel is not petroleum jelly.  In side by side tests, ants were able to cross petroleum jelly, but they couldn’t cross BugSnub Gel.  Bugsnub Gel is more viscous (more sticky/goopy) and it’s waterproof (and it has a light green hue).  It also has a much higher melting point, so it stays effective and in place in very hot weather.  Petroleum jelly, on the other hand, will melt and run off at about body temperature.

**Q: Those who have been using this tray for a while, what do you think about it?  Does it really work?**
A: Yes, it does. My mom lives in assisted living with her little dog. After a year or so, the ants found their way to the food bowl.  Since using the tray, the ants have given up.  We only use the tray inside, so I don’t know about feeding outside.

**Q: how often do you hafto change the gel?**
A: I've had BugSnub for almost four months now and haven't had to add any gel yet. It's still working good.

**Q: How do you wash the tray? Do the feet come off and go on easily? How are the attached?**
A: The feet are designed to stay in place.  They are attached to the tray with four #8-32 black stainless screws and technically could be disassembled, but we do not recommend doing so.  The tray surface can be wiped down for cleaning using any of your preferred cleaning products for countertops.  When it comes time to renew the BugSnub gel, we recommend thoroughly wiping out the old gel with paper towel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works! keeps ants out! keeps food area contained!
*by D***R on October 18, 2025*

perfect for cats who may also spill some food outside their dish, it goes into the tray, so you just don't get ants at all! the goo it comes with to protect the feet-shafts is i think just vaseline.
