• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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....

Aaron Pauling deserves your business. We've been buying feeder roaches from him for at least a year now and are always impressed with his timely service, good prices, and awesome packing/overcounting. He always comes through and we've never had any issues after many orders. If you need feeders, don't shop around, just see Aaron!

Sadly, I had a pretty poor experience with him.
Ordered some dubias and a isopod culture. Shipping was delayed several times due to different crisis he was having. Eventually it was shipped with no notification. I then got a notification email with no tracking info, got in touch with Aaron and he said it hadn't shipped yet.
We went back and forth with him promising it would ship soon for a month's time. Come to learn it had shipped 11 days before the notification email, and sat at the post office until it was returned to him. He was emailing me that it hadn't shipped yet, while it was sitting at my local post office waiting to be picked up.
Got some explanation about a different crisis that had happened, and ended up just writing off the order since I didn't want to deal with it anymore. Frustrating experience as I was starting my first dubia colony at the time, and this delayed it by 2 months.
