[QUOTE="Synapze, post: 343313, member: 10818"] I use the mesh type which has a mild adhesive. I've never had an issue with adhesive sticking to feet... it's not a strong adhesive yet sticks to clean glass. I emphasize 'clean' glass because it won't stay attached if the surface has any residue or dust. I've been using it for about 2 years. In fact, most of the larger mantids I own use it as a molting surface. For species that can't climb smooth surfaces, I place the tape on the sides of the enclosure. If they don't climb the sticks or decor they use the mesh with ease. I raise a lot of cat eyes and have never had a mismolt. I use the 6" wide mesh tape available from Home Depot or Lowes. White is my preference because it looks better than the yellow. It works well for me. [/QUOTE]
