Spotted this goliath on our back stairs. My 2 year old was really excited to tell us. He yells, "MANTIS!"

I created this and was encouraged to share to fellow insect lovers who would appreciate! I submitted this design to a c0ndom design contest.
I think it would be hilarious. If you also would like to see this you can vote #4 on ig @OneCondoms https://www.instagram.com/p/DerY6tAEdE1/?rpxt=OTRrY3diMGNjeWZx

Lost Her for awhile and just found her on the dog crate. Does anyone know if she will pass away after laying eggs? Is this turning into a Charlotte's Web story?

Question Expert cricket keepers - How would you do an "ethical" cricket enclosure?
•
Upvotes
I have a gecko who i keep crickets for. I was wondering how I can make their lives a little less miserable towards the end and maybe stop them from killing eachother.
This is what I have for them and I feel bad. I feed them pangea. Please help me give these crickets a better house and stop them from eating eachother. I put 2 food dishes there, but maybe I should put them on opposite sides? Maybe I should get a bigger home for them?

So I boiled my dirty clothes in hot water to see if I could find an insect on them, to test out the theory that my previous controller said to me that if their treatment didn't work then there was something infesting my clothes.
Lo and behold after I went outside to check to hang the clothes, I was going to put my blue basin back in my bathroom, when I checked for insects and found these two.

Bug Appreciation! Assassin bug on my arm

This guy landed on my arm after I had the nerve to pollinate my tomatillos. There are heaps of them in my garden but they seem to really like hanging out on the tomatillo plants. He didn’t bite me. But he looked at me like he really wanted to.
