camimom New Member Sep 4, 2014 #1 Quick question, for those of you who breed dubias, what is the name of that tape stuff you put on roach bins that heats it up or something? And where do I get it?

camimom New Member Sep 4, 2014 #6 Thanks for the help! I use the mats too, but we had a brutal winter last year, so roaches stopped breeding as fast as I needed them too. the cold even claimed the life of my favorite Panther. Ill get looking for the flexwatt and heat tape.

I'm trying to save up for a generator big enough for fridge and freezer use.
