excelcizor can sometimes be found at craft stores like micheal's, but you will probably have to look in person cause i dont think they call it excelcizor. you can also use stuff in place of excelcizor, like; cut strips of 1/8-1/4" mesh plastic screen, cut in half bamboo skewers, or crumpled coffee filters. fruitfly media recipies can be found everywhere and some work better than others, here is a list of media recipies, http://www.anapsid.org/fruitfly.html , you could also try the harvey peterson medium. i have tried most of the recipies out there and my favorite is one of the simplest, 8 parts potatoe flakes, 1 brewers yeast, 1 powdered sugar,and enough water / slash vinegar/ orange juice to get it to the right consistancy.after this mixture has set in the containers and cooled it is topped with a 1/16" slurry 1 part powdered sugar, 1 part active dry yeast, and enough water to make it a little thicker than maple syrup. most homade recipies (including this one) will mold without the use of tegosept. my favorite commercial media comes from http://cgi.ebay.com/Fruit-Flies-Cul...ryZ20759QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem if you get his starter kit he will give you way more excelsizor than you need, also, his media is my favorite commercial media (odor&mold free). josh's frogs http://www.joshsfrogs.com/category/50/Fruit-Fly-Media-Media-Ingredients also has a great media, plus tegosept and other supplies, tegosept can also be found at http://www.carolina.com/?s_cid=ppc_gl_carolina&gclid=CKT88Z7b4qACFaFi4wodVluWBw regardless of where it comes from exelcizor should be boiled and dried prior to use jmo
