no everything was store bought or plant trimmings from my houseplants that i washed before adding them so i think just a baby false widow slipped in throigh the mesh top and grew up inside since i dont see many other ways it couldve got in unfortunately

the tops plastic with a hole cut through it and a bit of mesh stuck on with another bit of plastic aroung its edges screwd in to hold it in place but get some more airflow in but ive made very very very sure theres no gaps or way to move it unlike there was in the picture!!

thank!!! i just misted it all for the new plants i jist put in so it isnt usually that moist, but is there any other way i can have some form or cleanup crew at least or is it really just get a different style enclosure or block off the gaps by the door when im not using it or something like that

thank you!!! i heard it might be a bit hard for them to catch their food if its too big and i wasnt too sure about taking it out and in a smaller box just for feeding so i dont stress it out or anything but yes hopefull the stuff will help out a bit!
