Thank you, CooperDragon, for the charcoal kit link! I think I will order that just in case. The thing I fear the most is that one of the beardies will eat a firefly when I'm not looking, and then they might die suddenly and I wouldn't even get the chance to administer the charcoal. I hate to...

btw for the record I do already have fly screens. That is why I was so confused about how the bugs were getting in. We also don't open the windows or the back door often. My plan for spraying inside the house (which I've now put on hold, maybe permanently) would be to spray only the window and...

You know, that's an excellent idea! I think I will. And at this point I am sold on the diatomaceous earth. I think if problems persist I'll try that next. I also found that there's a gap in my screen door and the door jamb, and THAT's where at least some of the lightning bugs are coming in...

Oh man, I feel for you! I assume your lawn eventually went back to normal? Yeah, I spent $40 dollars on this spray (and the rushed order) just to give myself a headache. The only ingredients in it are citronella, peppermint oil, soap, and water. I could have just taken what my mother taught me...

Oh god... I sprayed that stuff outside my screen door and windows, and even with everything closed up I can still smell it in the house. I regret everything :(((((((((((((((((((((((((

Thank you everyone for your advice!! I found a spray called "Green Man's Lemon Bomb" that is supposed to repel all sorts of bugs, including beetles. It's made up of different essential oils, including citronella, and is safe to spray outside and is non-toxic to any animals that might be...

Hi everyone, Every year I have at least one firefly that gets into my apartment despite me being careful to shut doors and windows. This summer we've already had three! I'm really worried that one of my two beardies is going to find one around the house before I can and eat it. I know people...

Hi guys, Thank you so much for writing back! Sometimes it's just good to know you're not alone in this. Two years ago when I lost my other beardie, Aten, you guys were there for me too. Thanks so much! I'm sorry to say that Osiris passed away this afternoon, about 2 hours after the vet visit...

Hi everyone, I have an old beardie, Osiris, and he's not been doing too well. I've been meeting regularly with a new vet about his issues, and I think the vet is really good, but I wanted to post on here and see if anyone had been through the same issues. At the very least, if this is really...

Hi Cooper Dragon! Nothing is flaking off, and visually nothing looks damaged or discolored or different. Just the smell. Have you ever noticed that with any of your enclosure furniture?

Hi guys, I noticed this happened in two different enclosures I have, both pieces of cage furniture seem to be made out of some kind of concrete or hardened clay. I was cleaning them recently and noticed that they almost smell... burnt? Has anyone else noticed this? Is this normal degredation...
