[QUOTE="Katnapper, post: 127292, member: 2164"] Misting the ooth once a day should be fine, unless your conditions are very hot and dry. That plastic birdseed container could be a fine hatching container if you modify it properly to provide adequate ventilation (and remove the birdseed, lol). Cut at least one (or more) nice sized holes in either the lid or the container itself, and attach either very fine screening or fabric/netting. I use organza fabric to keep in the smallest fruit flies and still allow ventilation. Place a layer of paper towel on the bottom of the container to absorb and hold moisture. Glue the ooth to the lid (or to the material you have covered the hole with, if you make a hole in the lid), and wait. The main thing is to modify the plastic container to have enough ventilation. Also, when you mist... make sure the ooth, container, and paper towel on the bottom, all dry out completely before misting again. If you don't let all dry out before misting again, you may develop mold problems, and it does not have to be that humid all of the time anyway. [/QUOTE]
