I have some groups of N. americanus millipedes and S. coleoptrata centipedes for sale or trade. Send me a message if you are interested. 2-3 day shipping and express shipping available.

The terrarium comes with a Exo-terra light hood (18 inch) with 2 natural light bulbs made by Exo-terra as well. In addition, the terrarium comes...

I have a hybrid hissing cockroach colony for sale (Gromphadorhina portentosa). I am offering the entire colony. I am not sure what kind of hybrids they are but I received them about a year and a half ago from a seller who did not think they were pure. This is backed up from some of the odd...

What is the best way to clean up cockroach frass inside the enclosure? I'm thinking springtails but I don't know if they will do the job. I have a coconut husk bedding but it doesn't seem to keep down the odor from the cockroach feces.

Ok, so on a test I had to take there was a question that asked what caused an arctic fox to turn white/brown with the different seasons. The answer choices were the following: A. food B. habitat C. gene D. sunlight I said that it was B because I thought the habitat was what caused the fox...

Here is a link to another one of my vivariums (I did this one today): https://www.dropbox.com/s/i4szw2cxu7pou3y/2014-04-08%2017.35.37.jpg Now I just have to wait for the plants to grow before I put any animals in it. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I should put in it (doesn't have to...

What are some of the best ways to get rid of grain mites? The tank that they are in is a planted vivarium, so I'm not really wanting to tear the whole thing up. Would adding isopods help? I have the dry food for the G. lurida in the tank in a flat food dish. Thanks in advance.

What is the highest temperature that they can stand? I have an exo-terra 50W infrared bulb that I want to use to heat them, but I'm not sure if it will get to hot. Is it ok to put the dome fixture directly on the screen top? Thanks in advance.

I got around 5 inches of snow here in NC :D It has been like 4 years since I got to see any.

I couldn't figure out how to actually post the picture, so here is a link to the enclosure: https://www.dropbox.com/s/oa0jqgo7ftpbb3t/IMG_0580.JPG This picture is of the setup before I put the roaches in it. The roaches don't seem to bother the plants, so everything looks the same now as in the...

Today I moved my hissers into a new enclosure. It is planted, has cork bark to hide under, leaf litter, and some wood pieces. A few hours after moving them into their new enclosure they started running around everywhere, trying to climb the glass, crawling on the screen top, and moving their...

Is it ok if I put an overhead light on an enclosure with a species from the Blaberus genus? My hissers don't mind the light, but I haven't had any experience with the Blaberus genus.

I found this really cool piece of oak wood in the woods around my house yesterday, but it has termites in it. Is there any way to remove the termites without having to bake the wood? I thought about submerging it in water.

I have a few questions about Blaberus boliviensis. -About how big are they (adults)? I read that they are a smaller species of the Blaberus genus. -Do they grow fast? -Would they be good for a vertical enclosure? Thanks in advance

I would really like to build a paludarium in the future with roaches in it. Does anyone have any suggestions about what kind of roaches would stay away from the water?

A while back, there was a tv series on the discovery channel called; The Future is Wild. On one episode, they show some predictions of insects in the future. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICQv0yArFs8
