WHY are you getting fruitflys in with your crickets ??????

Could it be that someone is foolishly using friut for their crickets Laughing Laughing Laughing

To get rid of fruitfly ... dont feed them Shocked

For moisture for crickets use a jar lid with a few mm of water or even use a piece of carrot which FF dont eat and doesnt go mouldy like potato

Carrot is the way to go Very Happy Very Happy

My cricket containers, I got through a few thousand a week in these containers. Notice the peanut jar lids ... one for water, one for flake food and the substrate is porridge oats. It smells nice and they eat it Very Happy
In the pic the containers are almost empty ready to be re-filled

As dry food doesnt smell ... take your choice. Very Happy It will depend on how many crickets you have. Very cheap cerial based pond pellets are a fav of mine.
