Hey guys,
What are your experiences shipping mantids in low temps are. Im going to send some out with insulation and a heat pack with overnight shipping. Its not severely cold yet but freezing is still a risk. I've never shipped mantids in the cold though I've read many folks in USA ship all winter long with the right packaging. Ive also read that heatpacks can dry out and overheat mantids in the mail so I wonder..Do I need heat packs, or just good insulation? If have recieved or sent mantids successfully in freezing or lower temperatures please let me know how it went.
Also, does anyone know a cheap source for those nice 72hr heatpacks? Those would be great to use for to ensure safety, especially since overnight shipping here is very expensive.
Thank you
