war against 'mites'

I feel that maintaining fruit fly cultures is the hardest part of keeping PDFs.

Hey, Bryan

Why do you feel that way? Myself, I'd rather make cultures than by crickets all the time.

I guess it's the whole thing...the supplies, the mixing, the mites. Have you ever made up three or four cultures exactly like before, and they go absolutely nowhere, and you have no idea why?

To be honest, I can't say that I have. I use Repashy, keep my room between 75-78F and always have the humidity at 55%. I get very consistent blooms. The key is the humidity. A dry culture is a dead culture. Heat is easy.
