Here's whats working

I found some non-toxic fly paper and crawling insect catcher. I tested it by putting some crickets on it for a few days. They are still alive. So I've used it at night when they come out and I keep an out to make sure it doesn't become reptile paper. I have caught about 300 of them. Not all of them but another night and I should have the majority.

It's a mix of clay,soil and sand. All I could find before winter set in. In the spring I hope to find a silt dirt from a riverbed somewhere. Soil dries out way too fast.
