hello Jack, I would like to tell you a story abour widows. When I first built my monitor building, it was invaded by widows. Heat, moisture, lots of loose crickets and WAM, tens of thousands of widows, in fact, millions and millions of them. So many they would hatch, go to lites and rain down, by the thousands. I would swipe the lites with a broom and smash it on the floor and leave a wet spot, two feet wide.



But alas, I sold some lizard bins to a friend in SoCal(ron huffacker) and got them back. Also a different kind of spider came back with them. A longlegged, smallish spider. Well, low and behold, those small spiders ate the widows and now no more widows, just a few of those long legged types. Those do not breed in large numbers and do not go into monitor cages. Which means, if they do the monitors eat them. I will say, monitors will not eat widows. But the widows do not harm the monitors either. So now, the only place the widows can live are in the monitor cages. But here they are easy to control, as they eat eachother too. So one per cage is easy to eliminate. Don't look up, it could be raining spiders, hahahahahahahaha We have lots of really big sunspiders too, turtles love them. FR
