I know for sure this is a stupid question, but I cant help myself from asking.
Are you collecting the moths? How does it work - does it just attract them and you have to go catch them? Or does it kill them somehow? and if so how?

 

[Brad Ramsey]

They fall in the trash bag and most of them can't get back out.

[Lizardlover]

[Todnedo]

There is a wire frame w/ a plastic funnel to the trash bag

 

[AJA]

That's great. Can we get some non fuzzy day time photos on the set up?

 

[Todnedo]

[Zen Reptiles]

Are you using all those moths as feeders?

 

[Todnedo]

yes my guys get moths for breakfast

I've read that feeding CB chams WC insects is a bad idea as they may have bacteria etc that the chams have trouble dealing with. Any truth in this or is it overly fussy?

i might have to try this

 

[toddmkeller]

Caught this in my bug trap last night. Its a 10 Lined June Beetle Polyphylla decemlineata

See Ya,

Todd

(no I didn't feed it to my chams)

How interesting! The only things we get around here aren't exactly feeder-worthy, even if they were cleaned out prior to feeding.. Mosquitoes..

Is there an earlier thread I missed talking about the design or construction of such a glorious device?
