hissers

I put packing tape around the top of my bin, but those darn baby hissers keep getting out. Any advice? I don't want to have a ton of 3+ inch roaches crawling around my house

Tape won't keep them from climbing. Hissers can climb anything. Mine are in a bin with a locking lid but rarely do I see any trying to climb the walls. I have reptibark for a substrate and a couple hollow logs and a couple egg crates for them. I suppose keeping them warm, dark, fed and watered they have no reason to go anywhere. Sometimes throwing an orange in the bin and a few minutes later I have babies crawling all over the orange. The adults will get their fair share also but usually prefer hiding in the logs.

alright, ill try to separate the babies and keep em in their own cage till their bigger, cause the big guys never climb out.
