Hey guys,

I recieved today my new colony of ligniperda.. queen plus around 15 workers. Ive put them into a temporary tank for now with PTFE around the edges and all seemed good.. then after around an hour they went quiet and stayed in the test tube.. normal behaviour then i thought...

Now.. tonight im sitting there watching TV and i feel somat on my leg so i just like shake me leg an think no more of it... It happens again, so i look down thinking ok whats this.. and i got a ligi crawling up me leg lol..
So i go and turn my light on, only to find 4 ligis out and about exploring lol
PTFE not even almost keeping them in.. So top on the tank and now chance for them to escape..

Il add some pics tomorrow

If you make the PTFE wide enough it should keep them inside, still always better to have a lid to. Just to make sure.

yeah , of course , PTFE must be absolutely dry , if is it in wet , it works slow or do not work
