    Dubias are not dubia'ing

    Something is off. I have around 30 females and I pick 60-70 per week for my chams. Your colony seems to be very low production overall. A single roach will give you around 30 babies! What are you feeding them?

    Should sticks from outside be cleaned

    I rinse with 1:10 bleach, and bake if they fit in the oven, 350 deg for 30 minutes. Probably an overkill... On the other hand a member posted recently a termite that came with branches for his enclosure, so, you decide in which end of the spectrum you want to fall.

    Can I use a cheap humidifier instead of an expensive fogger?

    Cheap humidifiers, usually warm ones, tend to put out large droplets that fall down very quickly. The will keep your humidity level up for a very short period of time after it goes off.
