I’m under attack

Your call, they can be a little sensitive IME. Make sure you have everything right or they will die. I bought 5 of them originally that I failed with, got 5 more nymphs and now these are doing well and have been for about 8 months or so.

You killed bugs noooo. I’ll research them a tad more if they are sensitive but I want them. I’ll get the dusky cave roaches first (y)

They aren't very hard, they just need what they need and if it's not there they don't do well. Wrong ventilation/humidity/no leaf litter/etc

My worst roach murder case was when I first got orangeheads, I had a bin of about 150 or so in a closet with a space heater. I bumped the heater too high, come back it was 120 degrees.... the dubia all lived through it just fine, all the orangeheads died. I felt so bad and that was back when roaches freaked me out, I didn't even want the orangeheads they were so creepy. I also culled a huge bin of lobster roaches I got for free... they were just too prone to escaping I couldn't keep them. So I put them out in below 0 temps. Which at least, freezing is the most humane way to kill most inverts. They basically just go to sleep.

The bug lord wants you to accept the bugs, not kill them or feed them to plants

The only god I follow is the plant gods and they demand bugs! You watch my offering video. I sat filming a fly for 10 minutes just to see if I could catch it go into a pitcher plant, witch I didn’t btw. I’m just scared of getting stung and having an allergic reaction. I can’t afford an epiPen $400 can go somewhere helpful

My boyfriend LOVES the venus fly trap I got him. He keeps feeding off all of Pesto's feeders to it. He fed one a rather large hornworm and the worm is just sticking out of it, I dont think the trap that took it is doing too well either lol. I told him the only thing he isnt allowed to feed is my silkworms :LOL:

You can try water from a high force spray nozzle on your garden hose. Stand back a good 15 feet though and do it at dusk when they are all calm. If it is built out of dirt it should disintegrate.

Wait for a cool morning. 1hr before sunrise and blast them with hose. Or cover window with clear plastic sheet (heavier the better), secure to window and tape shut for a few days. Cooking with the sun is fun!
