fruit flys in cricket bins

[joemacchirella]

hello i ordered about 2 weeks ago 1000 crickets and when i went to transfer them into their bins some fruit flys flew out as they were shipped with fruit in their container so i carefully transferred the crickets to their bin thinking that this would get rid of the fruit flys but no luck everytime i go to feed and water the crickets their are some ff in the bins i have not seen any maggots or anything like that everyday i take out the old veggies and put in new ones and the same goes with the water crystals i clean out their bins once a week any suggestions on if i should just let the fruit flys stay or anyway to rid them without hurting my crickets

Yea you can buy a ff trap.It will help a little. But in the summer months they are everywhere! The good side is they are a sign of well feed crickets.Witch leads to healthy chameleons
