I thought that the rubbermaid tub was escape-proof. I was wrong.
I think that they're climbing up the top and through the crack between the tub and the lid. There's no hole- I double and triple-checked. How does everyone keep their feeders from escaping into the house at large? How can I stop these buggers from getting out into my room?

I use a rubermaid tub, place a strip of clear packing tape about 12 inches from the bottom. they cant climb over the tape, this way none will escape. and keep the lid off, keeping the lid on creates too much humidity and it will smell horrible.

Done- and so far, so good. I've yet to see one of them climb up the tape. However, it seems that the problem is solved. Now to catch all of the escapees...

back when I had my toad in a 5 gal bucket, I'd wake up with a cricket crawling on my face. The dang things climbed the bucket. Never saw one do it..but they had to be comming from somewhere. Those things can climb just about anything.
I've yet to have a cricket climb out of my clear sterilite 66 qt tubs, however, if I remove one of the pieces of egg flat and one is attached they do escape that way, but it;'s few and far between. considering roaches now though, I've had 2 batches of crix die on me after sustaining a colony for 6 months or more. tired of unexplainable die off. my first tub was a colored one and they could climb that. it sucked!
