Hey Ginger,N,Lee thank you so very much for your help I never even thought about putting out lights closer to the ground to attract bugs at there level. I have been turning on all the porch lights for them. Excellent idea I will do just that. I have also started to have some success with getting some of them to eat. I first tried pin head crickets but they were still to large I guess. So then I went to flightless fruit flies and bingo we had quite a few takers I was so pleased to finially see some of them eating.I just wish I would have been a little more prepared so I could have been culturing the flies ahead of time because they went througe two vials right off the bat. I guess you live an learn. Once I figure out how to get a photo album going I will post some photos of the little guys. Once again thank you for your response your the first to respond to this post and I will be sure and lower some lighting for them. If you or anyone else has any ideas please post them .I sure could use all the help I can get. Also if anyone would like some and are any where close by let me know they are free. Thanks
