How long will they gather up boluses before they ultimately clean house??? I have a female Aphonopelma sp. and the collection of dead cricket carcasses under her hide, had accumulated to the point of me actually scooping them out, and getting rid of them myself, after a couple weeks. The enclosure is BONE DRY, ( and the climate in Reno, even DRIER:razz:,)but I still had concerns about vermin build up, so decided to do a little house cleaning for her. Will she eventually do a major cleaning job, or should I expect to have to do this a couple times a month, on my own? It's almost as if she was trying to bury her garbage, rather than throwing it out... Otherwise, her appetite, demeanor, and behavior are absolutely wonderful, I am just concerned anout eventual mites.
Thanks for looking.
