Where to get vials from?

Where can I order the plastic vials from for housing slings?
Thanks,

Depends on the size of vial you want, along with how many you need. I've gotten mine from Bioquip before and they work well. I think the price is fairly good too, though there is a minimum order of $25. BugsinCyberspace also sells them. I'm sure there are other sites that offer larger quantities for great prices as well. I know Thornton Plastics sells large quantities, but we're talking like lots of several hundred up to over 1000.

I bought mine on amazon. Not sure what company it was exactly, just search "plastic vials".

I was in the dollar store the other day and they have some nice glass Salt/Pepper shakers that look perfect for slings to about 1.25 inches. Nice plastic "vented" snap cover and you could easily cut the center out of the screw on lid to make it more secure. They also have some small short round glass containers that would be good for terrestrial T's to about 1.5 inches. S/P containers are 3 for a buck and the other ones I think are 2 for a buck.

2oz deli cups are much cheaper. you can get them from restaurant supply dealers.
