    no, don't let them crawl on his face, make him bite it, so just rub it on his lips, he'll learn

    do you have a dimmer for your lamp? you can just dim it down a little for night.

    No I've been looking locally for a thermostat with no luck, I'll have to order one. I know they work for heat pads, ceramic bulbs as well?

    home depot, 10$ lamp dimmer, it is not perfect, but sure will do. thermostat will work with anything, or you can get hydrotherm off ebay, its the cheapest way

    Maybe he has eye problems? Ive had several blind mantids in the past. One had a small sliver of an eye she could see with so I would use tweezers to hold her food where she could see it. The other I had to touch his face or raptors (claws) and he would grab it.
    How do his eyes look?
