I bit the bullet last time and bought 500 large crickets and i'm keeping them in a 10 gallon tank in my laundry room near Olive's cage. but my kids are complaining. Plus it's a PITA to get them out, I always seam to loose one by either crawling up my arm or it was on the screen in the corner and I missed it, Then I have crickets everywhere ( one was in the shower and my 9 year old daughter didnt see it until after she was in!) So my question is, is there a better way to do this? I have the egg crates in the tank, plus 2 large paper rolls so I usually shove them off the outside of the roll, cover the end with my palm and shake the other end into a cup for transport to Olive's cage. it was so much cheaper to do it this way, but all we hear all night is the group of them chirping or a random one somewhere where it shouldnt be. We also give her a milworm as a quick treat maybe once a week but I read that she shouldnt only eat them because they're fatty? Plus our Leopard gecko is on a all milworm diet so I dont want to use too many. Thanks in advance
