Roaches

How do you mount it and stop the plastic of the container melting?

[Kevin1]

I put the sticky side on the floor of the bin.
So far The heater hasn't gotten hot enough to melt the bin.

[John]

That's an interesting approach. Thanks for the info Kevin.

a cheaper heating solution is an incandescent bulb. i got two over my colony, it,s heating fine. some will say they don't really like the lights, that is correct, but they,re hiding under egg boxes and breeding like mad in my enclosure, so i bet the benefit of heat vs illumination is good. they're not dubias tho.

Your welcome John.
Fred What species are you keeping?

[Fred]

Blatta lateralis aka Turkistan Roaches or Red Runners. i feed the babies to my little Redback salamanders, adults and nymphs to my fire bellies, geckos, tarantulas, etc.
