Would you purchase from again?
Yes
Pros
  • All feeders arrived alive, none dead
Cons
  • Nothing at all
I was searching all over for red runners(b.lats) for about a month and I sumble upon MWA’s advertisement on some red runners in 2016 but I was desperate so I asked him anyways hopping he would have some left! However he said he was out of stock for selling 500-1000 but he can spare me 100-200 since I was search for them all over! I am very thankful! The prices were unbeatable 200 smalls and med for only $20! Trust me when I say that’s is a deal truly unmatched my others. Overall everything was great from the packaging, communication, and price! Thanks a lot

Cons

Sydsnybny and I were looking all over for red runners and we couldn't find anyone with any for sell. Steve found an ad for MWAInverts and a few days later, we had our roaches. I ordered 500 mixed size and that's exactly what I got - there were pinheads up to mature females and males. I'm already getting oothecas from them.

Thanks for coming through when no one else had what we needed! My inverts and reptiles thank you!

  • All healthy correct sizes separately shipped :)
Cons

I had been looking all over the internet for some red runners for feeders with no luck when I came upon an old add here on AB with a link to his Etsy store for roaches.The link was to an Item that was no longer for sale. ;( So I took a chance and PM'd him to see if he still had any for sale. He gladly reactivated the link in his store for me to purchase. I then asked if he would package different sizes desperately because I was splitting the order with BugMom. Again this was not a problem, Great customer service. I will buy again.

Just placed a second order for 1000 small roaches because I was so pleased with my first order of 1000 (my small sling and small scorp collection is growing quickly). MWA has the best prices on the internet for Blatta lateralis and I have spent many hours doing my research. I would recommend MWA to anyone looking B. lats.

Pros
  • Great communication, fast shipping, healthy roaches, huge overcount
Cons
  • None really
POSITIVE!!

Bought 500 large roaches from MWA and I'm very pleased with our transaction! His communication is super fast and detailed; he sent WAY more than 500 massive, healthy red runners and even threw in a few hundred small roaches for free after I mentioned that I needed some hatchlings for some of my baby inverts; and they were packed so well that ALL of them survived a 5-day cross country trip in the dead of winter (they are double boxed with ample insulation and a heat pack...though be aware that the roaches are packed directly inside the inner, taped-up box, so make sure to open it directly over your roaches' new enclosure, otherwise you could end up with escapees). I would definitely buy from him again if I ever need more red runners, though tbh, he sent so many that I now have 2 massive colonies full of adult females who are dropping about 50+ ooths per day, so there's a good chance I may never need to purchase another red runner ever again :) Thanks, MWA!

  • Positive experience all around.
Cons

Best price that i could find on S. Lateralis, packaging was perfect. Did not see any dead roaches and i ordered 500 of them( i had expected some to arrive dead). Smooth buying experience, actually did not even need to contact them. Simply made the purchase through etsy and then waited on my roaches to show up.

Only thing to note is that S. Lateralis will indeed climb up the sides of rubber maid containers or any plastic container unless you clean every bit off dust off of the surface. I had read up on the Lateralis climbing up container walls before i made the purchase so there were no surprises. Keeping them in an aquarium may be the only solution to that. I will be buying from MWA again.

Hey! I'm glad everything went well with your order :) thank you again. Yes, the smaller nymphs and males can gain foot hold if the sides are a bit dirty. Generally though, it's not too much of a problem.

I have started my colony of S. lateralis from MWA last year and kept buying to recharge my colony a few times already.
for example beginning it took some time to establish and his products contain both young adults and nymphs of all sizes. This helps me to feed variety size of my Ts.
now its dry winter. Even with heater/water gel the production has declined so I recently ordered again. His price is best IMO and I enjoy buying his colony/batch. His roaches are always healthy, no dead ones at all, packaged well and easy to dump them into my tub.
We were waiting for heat packs to arrive and the weather to warm up a bit. I was afraid of winter shipping as roaches maybe more sensitive to cold.
MWA's timing and good logistics proved be a success and all the roaches arrived healthy/alive and active.
I will probably order again in Spring.
thank you very much,
