I really wish me or someone had a solid answer for what's going on with your spider. I don't see anything at all you did or did not do that was wrong. I've only ran into two cases of a spider that the lack of water as a source and in their keeping was a major issue and that was both all due to...

...whenever I can. I only clean around enclosures with hot water and elbow grease. Unless it needs a deep clean then I'll do vinegar or diluted bleach, but then I rinse well and let the container sit for days and rinse it again before reusing it. I did not treat or clean this enclosure at all...

These nats are swarming wet substrate. I removed my dubia colony so the can’t lay eggs in the frass.

I think they’re fungus Nats or fruit flies, I noticed them swarming a wetter t enclosure, so I put it in a dry tank that was far larger. Flies haven’t laid any eggs so that’s a plus. I have a thread older then that deals with same topic but thanks I’ll read both and no these aren’t phorid...

Find their source. Roach feces probably so you're out of luck. What kills one kills the other. With drain flies it's easy. Pour a cup of bleach down the drain followed by a cup of ammonia then leaves the room immediately. Wait a few hours then ventilate the room. Flies and larvae gone.

...plus is ant baits won't poison or hurt your pet inverts cause they only work when the ants eat them and take a few droplets to their colony. Alternatively you can follow the ants to their colony if it's on your property and destroy it using vinegar or bleach. You should take this very seriously.

This reminds me of a tale a friend once told me... My homie's husband: Military interpreter The scene: Nigeria The villain: Boko Haram extremist being questioned on why he tried (and failed) to run a truck into a US humanitarian aid security checkpoint. Interpreter: "Can you tell me why you...

My toes curl up at the thought. Shades of the Tide Pod challenge and 'Got Covid? Have a few swigs of bleach.' What about adjunct compounds that can cause ammoniums to become volatile? I'm thinking on two lines, accidental mixing with common aromatics, and then, what is the safe concentration to...

Not wet enough. Ordinary water can't even get a flea wet. Chlorine solutions are even worse. Big clunky molecules. If you can't afford a mite killer repeated soakings in laundry detergent solution will eventually drown them. Alternately mild solutions of BKC will do the job. Ultra low surface...

Now you got me scared for my cats. time to go bleach my cats

There’s an invert that can only be seen with an electron microscope that lives on our eyebrows its entire life. And that’s just one of many on our bodies.

Mites are harmless they say... After reading this, I want to bleach my face and take a long boiling hot shower

...end up making a mess, I have to change out that area of sub right away or the smell will seep into the substrate and enclosure and remain there for weeks until you bleach the container. The smell of rotten mouse guts is horrible. Worse than if you left a raw piece of chicken in a hot garbage can.

...SH, this guy tends to hit a lot harder due to the concentrations that are usually available on the market. Being the primary ingredient in bleach, its a doozy. SD on the other hand, can be harder to find (depending on where you are) but is the active ingredient in industrial deodorizers...

The heck with those gigantic chlorine molecules that can't wet a decent sponge. Ant Solution! The correct dilution of benzalkonium chloride, sprayed all over but especially as near the nest as you can get. BKC destroys olfactory receptors, along with being a very powerful anti bacterial agent...

I miss you too! Bleach- Good Q, I always let the rooms air out before putting them back in- it’s a process. Get an exterminator too

Sound the kazoo for she has arrived! HooahArmy in the flesh! Alright, ladies and gents, let's take a look at bleach and what it is and how it is toxic. The Science: At its most common form, bleach consists primarily of sodium hypochlorite and water. While that latter ingredient is obviously...

...they were never inside any tanks. Multiple colonies mean a larger issue. That is out of our depth. Might actually require an exterminator, as much as I hate to say it. As for your bleach question, I defer to @HooahArmy every time, as they are the true expert in that field. ;) Good luck! :)

...pretty 100% sure that we’re dealing with several ant colonies at this moment. And of course we are, they’re everywhere…. Ugh! also, does that bleach idea work if there are tarantulas in the same room that you’re spraying the bleach? Even if the windows are open, I still feel like it could...

That is fantastic information, thanks so much for taking the time. Jewel of a post. my previous experience with formaldehyde and formalin are strictly as fixatives. the idea being then, fix the subject then swap out to alcohol for long term storage. Obviously I have no experience in...
