Just wanted to share a little trick I use now to help keep my crickets alive longer. I've started dropping those little dessicant packets in with my crickets and this helps keep moisture and humidity at bay! Both are cricket killers! Instead of a week my crickets go weeks as long as I keep them fed of course! Lol. The packets can be had in a lot shipping boxes but I use them out of vitamin or something similar bottles so nasty chemicals should not be of much concern. Only thing better would be to start your own colony but that seems like a of work compared to a Dubia colony. I swear by this now and drop the packets in soon as I get my crickets and have been blown away how much dead loss this averts! Happy Spoodering!
