Mite paper !

[flybyferns]

Hi Lynn, I've actually never heard of it. Pretty neat. I have, in my research, decided to order joshsfrogs mite spray. I have not had any mites nor do I want any and would like to be prepared.

Though, my two cobalts eat so many ff that I doubt I'd get to the 28-30 day time frame when they usually invade. I start each new culture 2 weeks after I start feeding out of the current culture so the new culture is ready 2 weeks later. So far so good (crossing fingers).

Let me know if you give the shelf paper a try. I'd like to know if it works well .

I will be trying this.
I do not have any mites ; and ditto! I do NOT want any!
I am culturing 2 size FF. So I thought this would be worth keeping in the bin w/ the FF cultures containers
My cultures are taking longer than 2 weeks.

Once I had mites in a cricket bin. OMG What a mess. I since have moved the crickets-clear- across the basement !!

How are you doing w/ isopod cultures? Mine are finally going nicely. I guess I have to warm things-up a bit.
They are doing better in the enclosures than in the culture containers. ( not for long though) I am planning to transfer the darts from quarantine soon.

I'm going to turn into a hermit crab down in the basement ! Thanks goodness the cats keep me company.

Thanks Heath
