Was Looking back at pictures when Jack first arrived versus now and I gotta say the color change is crazy! I was shocked by his color when he first arrived although he always seemed to be either light colored or very dark no in between. Recently he’s been so vibrant and the red rain on his eyes, arms and head has gotten INSANE! Just wanted to share these pics, I feel like Jack is such a happy boy with me😊(first 3 pics are before and last 3 are after)

Also does anyone know a good solution to get rid of fungus gnats 🤨they’re rampaging my cages and I’ve tried almost every solution

First arrival

Awww he’s so handsome!!! I have sundews/carnivorous plants next to my girls cage and they work decently with lowering my gnat population

Besides that idk how to get rid of them :).

thank you for that! i was definitely looking into getting carnivorous plants that cant go into the cage but i guess we will see! I've tried everything from apple cider vinegar to watering the plants with hydrogen peroxide and no luck :/
 
Is your enclosure bioactive? If not, you could try Mosquito Bits. I have 2 Katchy things, tried baby mantids and the apple cider vinegar and the dratted gnats were still everywhere. Out of desperation I tried the Mosquito Bits and that has worked. I think it did wipe out my clean up crew though.

Okay this is perfect! Thank you for the info, just one question. Is the mosquito bit at all harmful to the chameleons? I’ve seen a bunch of stuff about the bits but never really looked into them

I only used because I had read on here in the past that it was safe for our chameleons. It’s a bacteria that kills the gnats and their larvae. Still, I only put it in the soil and avoid the leaves.
Btw, Jack is just gorgeous! 💗
