Big eyed bug care?

[Hisserdude]

Anyone here have experience with the big-eyed bugs, family Geocoridae? I caught one yesterday and three more today, and I'd like to keep them. All I know is that they are predatory. Anyone familiar with their care?

Thanks in advance!

Presumably just keep em well lit and feed them fruit flies? Pic see why you'd want to keep them, a couple months back I saw two chasing eachother around on some leaves and thought they would be interesting to observe because they're so active, running around everywhere looking for aphids and such to eat.

Yeah, I'll feed them small prey like cockroach nymphs and tiny mealworms, I don't have fruit flies. Just wondering, why well lit?

Because they're diurnal and like sunshine

In my experience anyway.
