What I would need to stat a discoid colony in Florida?

[trinity040400]

I am thinking about breeding discoid roaches in my garage. Since I live in central Florida and they are native her I dont think I need alot of the stuff other people need like heating pads and stuff the make it humid.

Has anyone else started a colony in Florida and what did they need?

Thanks for any help!

I have about 500 discoids hopefully will start breeding soon.

Where did you get your discoids from? I looked into starting a colony about a year ago and even though they are legal in FL, I couldn't get anyone to ship to me because they were being overly cautious.

Mulberry farms is the only place I have found them.
