In my honest opinion, I'm glad I started ordering in bulk 1,000's..Mine goes through an easy 1,500 a week,and going to my store to get that would completely clean out my wallet..
I think you would be fine with that,as long as the temps don't get too low..
I have my Sterlite bin in my room,and I never notice the smell because they don't..if you clean it out regularly. I have a 19 gal clear one with a snap top lid. I cut a square hole in the top,duct taped some screen wiring in it,and your done. All you need is egg crates and food,and you'll be good
I order 1,000 at a time,and I clean it out every other day (sometimes every day depending on the crickets) I went to Walmart and got a small little brush and dust pan,and that's how I clean my bin out. They get lettuce and a special gutload with water everyday,and I never have more than 3-4 die in the spaces between when I clean the bin
It's really not as bad as people say it is..I've never had a problem with it. My toad tank smells more than they do,and his doesn't smell that bad at all :roll:
Hope thats helps a little
