I cut part of the lid out and fasten metal screening to it using liquid nail or hot glue, for ventilation. I put a 2 inch strip of bug stop, vaseline, or olive oil around the top of the bin. Replace every 1 to 3 months or when it dries up. I places egg cartons in there for hiding. Make sure there is enough hiding ares so males won't be too territorial. === Substrate === None needed. I put a layer of alfalfa pellets along the bottom in case some don't get to eat much. === Temperature === 80 to 90 F.
