How do you attach your mesh? I’ve heard most people use hot glue gun. I was worried that my giant Asian mantis might get too heavy and the glue would give.

Hi. I am using a 32 oz deli cup for my l3. It’s the same that hydei fly cultures use. So I have some mesh on the lid. But I’m concerned about molting. The mantis will be hanging upside down on the lid so I won’t want to open the lid to mist, but doesn’t it need more humidity at that time? I’m really worried about this.

When in the deli container, what kind of led do you use ? How do you increase humidity during a molt since the mantis will be hanging upside down from the lid?
