Egg crates from Petsmart

[randommonks]

My local Petsmart will give me large egg crates for free that come with their shipments of crickets. They often come with some baked on poop from the Texas heat during shipping. I'm wondering if it is safe to use these egg crates in my dubia bin, and if the dubias can catch something nasty from the crickets. I've read baking things will help remove icky things, so I'm wondering if baking the egg crates will help make them safer? Thanks!

i think a good spray with some water/vinegar would do the trick, then just let it dry out in the sun

Interesting. I was just afraid that it would distort the egg crate but I suppose the dubias won't care
