Congrats xargar! Finally all the waiting ends.... I know what it feels like!
Seems grindals are spreading like a wildfire among hobbyists.
There was a time when only 2-3 people on this site had them!
And now, if most members lose grindals due to high summer temperatures, we have you living in a place where weather is pleasant in summers.
I want to share my little experiences with you.
1. Be very careful about one thing: The moment you think that you can neglect your cultures for a while, or you could leave them to the care of non-hobbyists like friends and family members, that would be your biggest mistake and it can lead you from loosing the easiest of all (microworms) to the toughest of live food cultures!
2. Second thing: Always tell your family what you are keeping and "why IT IS NOT TO BE THROWN". Always beware of house maids (esp. the new ones)! Their Job is to clean the house of garbage and insects (exactly what our live food cultures look like). So always keep them in a secure place in your home where no one would reach.
3. Last but not the least : Be very vigilant when traveling. If possible, never leave your cultures at home! Tiresome Long Journeys can make you neglect your cultures causing you to keep them in dangerous places like kitchens, balconies or people prone areas. So see to it.
