Has anyone else experienced this? I added some flex watt heat tape to the outside back wall of my tubs and it turns and also goes under the tub. I have it set to about 94 which keeps the tub at around 85 1/2 way down the tub. What I am finding now is that the roaches have literally abandoned their egg crates and they all just pile up at the back corner of the tub in the warmest spot. So much so, that i have noticed a smell and found a number of dead ones back there recently.
I've turned the heat off for now thinking I am killing them, but I wouldn't think they would stay where its too hot (if it even is) with the rest of the tub to utilize.
I know raising these things can't be too difficult, I am just trying to find a "set and forget it" method so that I can move them out into the garage soon and just kinda forget about them. I don't want it to be wrong and then lose them.
Any help would be much appreciated!
