I am recently in care of two phidippus audax jumpers. The realize this is mostly for Ts but I’m researching on blue bottle spikes for feeders. I bought a pick of larvae flies of online and have been incubating some in an old Tupperware with a moist paper towel. The Tupperware and paper towel are all inside of a ziplock freezer bag with breathing holes . I keep this in my fish tank canopy so it stays warm and humid. But it’s not enough. My flies hatch and some aren’t healthy. Others don’t live long. One of my jumpers seems to only prefer flies for meals vs crickets or worms. So, i am needing to keep a small population of flies on hand for food. I am curious if there are any threads here about raising flies and keeping them alive.I appreciate the help! Thank you!</blockquote>
