Message: <blockquote data-quote="DIscount Dubias" data-source="post: 60074" data-attributes="member: 4232">Actually, dubias are a tropical breed of roaches and require temperatures in the 80s to breed, and will die off without enough moisture. For this reason, due to their climate Florida actually bans the import of them. If you were not breeding them they can be kept at room temperature. They are very house safe, and much better than the crickets that most people buy. As for cleaners, most reputable distributors use them and you almost always end up with a couple in your order. Even if you didn't though, like MassExodus said, the small dubias will help keep the colony somewhat cleaner.If you are looking for more information on dubias you should check out my website at discountdubias.com.</blockquote>
