FortunateSon · Sep 16, 2007

oh and could i add a dab of super glue to sticks and put the oothecaes on them?

Andrew · Sep 16, 2007

^ That ought to work fine. Sometimes I use hot glue.

Precious · Sep 16, 2007

Superglue has lots of fume. Don't think I'd do that.

FortunateSon · Sep 16, 2007

ya i wished i used hot glue...i tried to use the super glue and every time it dried, it just fell off ): so i just took some copper wire and tied the ends off to sticks

A hot glue gun works best. The glue is non toxic. Super glue generally isn't. If you have these indoors you may not have to wait until spring as they may hatch early.
