I wouldn't use 3D printed things for food, for the reasons @JacksJill saidAnyone know if bugs that can't climb up smooth walls can climb up a 3D printed surface? It makes if they could but don't know yes or no
While a direct contact 3d printed food dish or water dish would not be advisable for the porous reasons mentioned, there are many creative ways to use 3d printed designs in feeding applications that I would argue do not pose such risks. The 3D printed cup holder in the image below for example, holds standard deli cups that are smooth (unclimbable) and are cheaply replaceable in various sized such as 8, 16, and 32 oz sizes. 3D printed parts can also be painted with a non toxic acrylic based paint to make them non-porous.I wouldn't use 3D printed things for food, for the reasons @JacksJill said
Bugs absolutely can climb 3D printed surfaces. While they may have trouble initially with a vertical surface, there is enough texture for crickets and dubias to eventually climb.Anyone know if bugs that can't climb up smooth walls can climb up a 3D printed surface?
