I've got about 9 P.Pennsylvanica ambush bugs I collected and identified a few days ago. I'm wondering if anyone has care advice for them? Right now they are in a small container with some goldenrod and I plan to upgrade the container to something bigger soon. I've tried feeding them waxworms and pinhead crickets but I've had no luck so far. The only thing I've seen them eat is a dronefly three specimens had caught when collecting so I put them in the container with the dead fly. Do they need bottleflies or fruitflies perhaps? They seem to occasionally drink the nectar or at least condensation from the flowers as well. Does anyone have recommendations for substrate or should I keep it empty? I have creature sand or sphagnum moss available right now if those might work perhaps. Should I add additional sticks beside the goldenrod stem? I've heard they sometimes hang out on other sticks so it might add some enrichment perhaps. Any info would be appreciated! I love these guys and I wanna see them do well!
