Unloading Crix

clickman Nov 01, 2003 07:04 AM

I hear alot of people say how it's hard to unload crix without escapees... Maybe I'm missing something, but...

I take my box and my cricket bin outside. I take a knife and cut one of the sides with screen open. Then it easily can be opened, the screen will fall out, and then I just shake it over the bin. The whole garbage bag thing seems asinine when you can just do this. Maybe I'm missing something here?

thats about what i do.
heck, most of the time just unpack them in the kitchen.
hope that doesn't sound horrible! LOL

i usually have a couple of the neighborhood kids over to catch any escapees.

works wonderfully!
