    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Bugstop toxic to leopard geckos?

I'm trying to figure out a way to feed lobster roaches to my leopard geckos so they cannot escape and came up with an idea. I have coated the sides of pyrex containers with bug-stop (actually a different version called insect-a-slip) so that the lobster roaches can't get out. After reading the contents of the bottle and all the precautions they make you take when handling the stuff I am wondering if when this substance is dry would it be safe for my leopard geckos to touch?



Any ideas?

After all that work I might need to throw out the pyrex and come up with another plan.

Maybe I need to get rid of the lobsters and get a non-climbing variety?

Regards,

Terry

I can't attest to the toxicity or lack thereof, but I have used the same method of feeding my acanthurus monitors for two years with no ill effects.
Contact is generally incidental and I have never really been concerned with having a problem.
