how often do you change cricket pillows

[twyliteskyz]

i bought those gel pillow things that you water and keeps them hydrated , well i have like 5 in there for about a week and i squrt it with a spray bottle of water to add more water to them, well anyways i checked today to see how they were and seen there was crickets on top of them, well i looked closely to see how they were drinking and noticed some were not drinking, they were trying to lay eggs instead... they were using the needle thing on the end of there bottoms poking it in the pillows, at first i didnt even know what those needles were i thought at first well maybe thats a device they use to get water out of stuff (kinda like a straw haha) but i looked it up on the internet to find out what was happening, so does that mean there pillows are bad now that they are laying eggs in them? what should i do

I used water pillows for a short time. I liked the idea, but they just weren't as functional as the crystals.
After just a few times rehydrating them, they stopped rehydrating. The biggest issue I had with them was cleanliness. They were just gross, so I threw them out.
