cedar contains tropolines and other ingredients that also could conceivably be released as an insecticidal gas. if it is released as a gas, then it permeates you, your feeders, your chams. in lower qtys, (like that derived from placing it in a remote location). its not inconceivable that it could get into your feeders, but not be strong enough to kill them, and you would never even know it.

same goes for lidane insecticidal shelf paper
just to be safe, personally i would use fly paper, or contact shelf paper sticky side up, just tack the corners to a throwaway board or piece of cardboard/ drywall or anything jmo best wishes, will call one of these days, xantho

if you can smell it, it is offgassing.
just to be safe, personally i would use fly paper, or contact shelf paper sticky side up, just tack the corners to a throwaway board or piece of cardboard/ drywall or anything. no smell, no gas, no risk, except maybe getting it in your hair. also, ddls like pill bugs, so, you might try sticking a tiny dubia or tiny pill bug to the center of your square, worth a shot, couldnt hurt anything. jmo best wishes, will call one of these days, xantho
edit;
ya know, dont get me wrong , im not trying to cause a panic over cedar shavings,(well maybe), probably lots of members with bags of the stuff hanging in their closet with no noticeable ill effects. all im saying is, if you want to make an informed decision, then its something to consider.
i know how the xanthoman would deal with it;
i would hatch out a chinese ooth and free range it,
as soon as it hatched, i would free range a culture of hydei, via controlled release container,.
in one week close off the release container, in 10 days, there will be no more ffs or ddls, in 3 more weeks most of the mantis will be gone, except for a few prime specimens. the xantho way lol
other option,
there are insect traps that dont even use an insecticide, they just use a fly paper of sorts, inside a hard paper box, with a sq of pheromones or other attractants, in the back.

Thanks John, I bought bunches of the spider traps off the internet, and never a spider in any of them.My feeders are on a different floor so they are not an issue, but if there is any chance it would hurt lenny, no moth balls. i have 8 chinese ooths but they don't seen to be hatching. That is a great idea and I will try it. For now i will get contact paper. You have such great ideas, you need to get here more often.
