    Source for Fluon/Roach Barrier

    Can anyone recommend a good source (as in reasonably priced, with shipping) for roach barrier? I have bad luck with vaseline - it always ends up running down the side over time.

    ID this roach please

    Can anyone ID this? I found it caught behind a wall light switch cover. It freaked me out to hear scraping noises that seemed to be in the walls, as I was reading a book on my couch on the wee hours, not understanding where the sound was coming from as everytime I went near, it stopped, but...

    Assassin Bugs

    Good work! Lucanus95 - Do you have any photos of your setups and colonies? Are all the ones commonly sold to hobbyist (reds, whites, horrids, etc) kept similarly? I also recently started keeping a few and have been given such varied info.

    Tailless Whip Scorpion Molting

    Which type of whipscorpion? If you mean vinegaroons, then yes they can molt on the ground. If you mean the other type (i.e. diadema) then what you've read above is correct from my understanding.

    I haven't done any collecting yet. Do you recommend just using a dipnet in local ponds, or is there more of a method?

    Aquatics

    Anyone here keep them ? Any success in breeding? What setups do you use? I tried my hand last year, and most died (probably from my mistakes) except one renatra that is alive still (despite my neglecting it for a couple months thinking it was dead, yet too lazy to throw it out)! I'd like to give...

    How many bugs are living in your home?

    Sorry, I should have used a big ROFL emoticon. I just found this humurous because to us, it means something totally different.

    My millipede collection

    What a wonderful collection. I just picked up my first millipedes at Tinely - gold phase Desert Millipedes. Don't recall the scientific name but I believe they are natives to the U.S. How did you manage to build such a collection ?

    Vinegaroon thoughts and advice!

    Fruit Fly media in Chicago ?

    Does anyone know where I can get fruit fly media (and maybe a culture if mine goes out too soon) locally in the Chicago region? Doesn't make sense to pay $10 shipping for a $15 order. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
