    Default Dubia's

    Trying to start my roach colony. If anyone has some that they are looking to get rid of for a good price, then I'd appreciate it. I am looking for adults and looking for a couple hundred. Please PM me if you have any to sell. Thanks!

    Where are you located? I want to sell my dubia colony but I'd rather not try to ship them.

    Whats the reason for selling John? if you don't mind me asking.
    I recently sold mine as well. I was very allergic to them.

    Kevin, allergic like sneezing? Just being in the environment or handling them?

    I just don't like culturing roaches - have too much to do as it is. I'm not allergic to them. I've never heard of that before but I suppose it's possible.

    Sneezing, itchyness, runny nose, and eyes even breathing difficulty. I've read that some people get slightly allergic to them. I guess mine was worse than most. Mostly when I handled them.

    Actually quite common if you handle without tweezers or gloves, the usual is that your skin begins to itch and becomes irritated. I heard about this before getting my first colony of Dubias, but I really wouldn't want to touch them without gloves anyway, most because I have a habit of being sucked at and bitten by all natures insects when pointing my nose as far as outside my bedroom window.
