The Ins and Outs of Keeping Crickets
How to Feed
Place a fresh piece of carrot every day or two into the container and Pisces crickets can be stored for about one week. Avoid overcrowding and ensure sufficient food and water to prevent cannibalisation. For longer storage, place the crickets into a deep sided plastic or glass container with a tight fitting ventilated lid. Provide hiding places and a saturated sponge for water. The best storage temperature for crickets is between 18°C and 25°C. It is essential that they are not exposed to poisonous fumes including pest strips and cleaning supplies.Storage & Care
