Whoever built this forsaken house 30 odd years ago did a pretty bang up job. The windows in my room are not sealed so of course ants, rose beetles, and other pest have found my home a home for themselves.
The rose beetles are not an issue so far I've killed them and they've not touched Thanatos.
The Ants who have decided to get into Thanatos' cage are my main concern. Although I live in Florida the ants that have decided to munch on Thanatos' greens are black, small sugar ants. I'm freaking out and I don't think Thanatos enjoys it either he's been rather dark which I read could be from stress(?). I think it may be I've been highly stressed as well trying to squish them allin his cage while he was sitting there, and Tristan(my 8 1/2 month infant) pulling on my legs the whole time was no help either.
I'm just curious if anyone else has had issues in the past with bugs in cages and I'd really like to know what to do. I'm in fear for Thanatos especially since he was malnutrished by his last owner and just got here two days ago!!!
Please for the loves of dragons help me?!
I'd just like to know how to deter them. I've already put cardboard and fabric over my windows sealed by duct tape( I know very poor way of appraoching this but I don't see how anything else will help).
