    Anyone know a way to control or eliminate the little flies that hatch from potted plants?

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B6RZP4H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I ordered a set of extra sticky cards as well, I think they were like $9 for eight more, it comes with 4, I'm actually thinking of setting it in the bottom of Ripley's enclosure for a night, it is...

    Anyone know a way to control or eliminate the little flies that hatch from potted plants?

    I just got this little gem today from Amazon, this works GREAT!! Technically you run it at night so the little buggers are attracted to the light but I turned it on and have already trapped at least 50!! TOTALLY worth the money, I was being taken over by the tiny demons!!

    What are these?

    it's scale, schefflera are prone to get them, you have to pick them off, try to get them all if you can, sometimes you can use mild dish detergent and water, only do this if you can take the plant OUT of your chams enclosure, then rinse well with plain water before replacing. If you let them go...

    First Hawk Moth Hatched!!

    I KNOW!! I didn’t expect it to be so huge, it hatched inside his enclosure and he came down to it and got it, I didn’t even touch it!!! I thought it was WAY too big for him but I guess I figured if he went after it he must have felt like he could eat it

    First Hawk Moth Hatched!!

    He got it and killed it but then it fell out of his mouth with all the fuzz he looked like he was horking up a hair ball and was VERY disappointed

    OMG, I think I figured out why Ripley has been closing his eyes lately!! I feel like such a horrible mom!! I was at work late tonight (he stays at my office) and his basking light and LED spotlight didn’t turn off at the set time, I thought maybe the time on the timer was off so I checked and...

    Little Worried

    I wasn't intending to offend, I simply copied and pasted the reply I received when I asked if I should swap to the 6% uvb. I am getting conflicting advice and it was recommended that I consult LightYourReptiles as an "expert" in lighting. I just want what is best for my chameleons health and...

    Little Worried

    Here is the reply from Todd, good info!! Number 1 You should put the legs back on. You do not realize... but that effects UVB and drops it by about 20% with the added distance. The added 3" inches w/ a 12% bulb makes the UVB PERFECT. Plus, there could be more shade at the top. I would get...

    Little Worried

    I have emailed Todd with this information, since this was a major point that I brought up when he recommended it in the first place, hopefully I can get him to send me a 6% uvb so I can swap it out.

    Little Worried

    I thought the same thing and I brought that up to Todd with LightYourReptiles but he said he recommended the 12%, should I maybe but another plant in at the top to dapple it a bit? I’ll attach a photo of enclosure, maybe put something in the top left corner?

    Ripley’s New Digs

    THANK YOU!!!, I wish I could afford a Soloarmeter! I will take the legs off. I think the UVB is the farthest back but I will check, I had it toward the front of the cage because if it is further back it blocks his basking lamp

    Ripley’s New Digs

    Todd included the legs in the box, he didn't specifically tell me to use them, but I felt that the temp would get too high if I sat the fixture right on top of the screen, his main basking branch is about 8" from the top of the enclosure, his basking bulb is on a stand that is then another 8"...
