📚🕸️ Keeping Inverts 101: The “3 Essentials” Checklist 🕸️📚

Before you bring any new eight-legged (or six-legged) roommate home, make sure you’ve got:
Secure enclosure (seriously… escape-proof)
Correct environment (temp/humidity/ventilation for the species)
Appropriate feeders + water (and a plan!)

I’m always happy to help with a basic setup direction if you comment the species you’re researching. 🖤

🪲✨ Bugs & Beetle Projects Update (limited availability) ✨🪲

If you’re into the “raise them up” side of the hobby, there are currently:
• Assassin bug nymphs (Platymeris biguttatus)
• Beetle grubs (Mecynorrhina oberthuri unicolor, Rhyssonotus nebulosus)

I love a good grub project. The glow-up potential is real.

🌿🦗 *FOR SALE*: Lonchodiodes sp. “Ilocos” (PSG 392) nymphs
aka tiny green twigs with suspiciously high confidence.

I have 15 nymphs total and can split into bundles of 5 ✅

💚 Nymphs hatch at ~1.5cm, bright green, and stay green until the final glow-up molt.

*Why these are brilliant:*
Adults have wild sexual dimorphism —🔴 males go red and dramatic, 🟢 females go lime/olive and elegant.
It’s basically nature’s goth x fairy duo in stick form.

*Care (simple + forgiving):*
🍃 Food: bramble/blackberry (main), also raspberry, rose, oak, beech, hazel
🌡️ Temp: 22–25°C
💧 Humidity: 70–80% (light mist every 2–3 days)
🏠 Enclosure: at least 38cm tall so they can moult without doing an accidental gravity-based science experiment

💸 *Prices*
Bundle of 5 nymphs: £10 OR take ALL 15: £25 (because I support bad decisions and good enclosures)

🚚 *Postage*📦 RM Tracked 24: £5

🚀 Special Delivery: £11 (for the “my sticks must arrive like royalty” option)

📩 *DM to claim* (first come, first served — once they’re gone I’ll just be left staring at bramble like an idiot).
