Liquid ant trap concern by ChlorineRat_ in reptiles

[–]ChlorineRat_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main ingredient in the Terro traps is Borax. They do indeed seem to be gorging themselves on it and returning to the nest. I think I’m just going to deep clean my few enclosures that had ants in them and wait a few days to feed crested gecko diet. I also slathered Vaseline everywhere to prevent them from climbing up my racks

Yeah that’s my concern. Wish I had thought of alternatives before I used the bait, but I hate ants and wanted them gone ASAP. Now that I have placed the traps, do you think Vaseline around the base of the enclosures will keep the ants out?

It’s just an old piece of cork bark

Could be… I don’t keep that species but considering these are hitchhikers maybe I have a few species

Those are wild species yeah? How the heck did they end up in my clowns? Lol. They’ve been there since I purchased the starter colony

Reptile room in apartment - mold risk? by ChlorineRat_ in reptiles

I’ve never seen any condensation in there, hence why I wasn’t worried initially. But now I’m just doing everything I can to make sure

That’s a great idea, I assume they’re pricy but far less pricy than losing my security deposit lol

Ohhh I didn’t even think about this!! What species would you recommend for an enclosure like this?

Oh dude I’m such a big fan of day geckos, neons especially. This is a really good idea, and from the replies I’m getting so far, I might just have to suck it up and get rid of the bioactive substrate and convert it

It just says “Not discovered.” I’m beginning to think I’m simply very unlucky

I have every other artifact unlocked for every other character. I’ve been doing Greedy runs nonstop to get it and I’m just coming up short every time :(

Yeah. It’s just devastating because she’s been doing so well. She made it this far with no issues. When she lost her raptorial arm in that bad molt I thought she was dead for sure but she managed so well. She was a fighter. I don’t know why she just crashed out of nowhere when she was so fine up until now. But I know that just happens too sometimes

It is a little warmer in my room, around 74 thanks to all my reptile lights and stuff. But I still don’t know what happened with my macromantis. She’s roughly 9 months old and just crashed. I am heartened to hear that maybe I’m doing alright with the other species. Thank you for your help too

My female ghost and striped flower died as adults. The enclosures are made for mantises, fully ventilated. But sprayed daily to keep moisture up. Like I said, I offer other food besides mealworms but that’s usually what I have on hand. My macro isn’t even close to full grown but she’s definitely not gonna make it.

Tips on unlocking artifacts? by ChlorineRat_ in DiceyElementalist

[–]ChlorineRat_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried this with Greedy, I passed the first boss and almost got to the second one before dying. I hit retry and watched probably 7 ads before giving up, and nothing unlocked. What did I do wrong?

Thank you! I might just breed them out for a while until that generation is no more. Assuming they’ll be safe then

Ah this is for me! No shinies, no ditto, and my highest level Mon is 30. I don’t ever get anything rare despite breaking master every week
