Hello All,
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make a container for silkworms in order to make their cleaning easy. I just spoke to Coastal and they are out of their silkworm keepers.

Thank You MARK B.:)
 
They sell those same plastic boxes with the hinged lids at every big box chain-out local Walgreens even has them! Then buy some cross-stitch mesh at a craft store and you are good to go!
 
Thanks for the info. Something else I was wondering is, If I put this plastic netting at the bottom for the waste to fall thru, do the silkies need branches or anything to climb on or should I let them stay on the plastic neeting.
 
I think the netting is fine. I have never really considered their happiness, just their health as they are pricy little guys! :)
