The other day when I went to feed my roaches, someone had thrown a Tea bag into the food pot instead of the tea bag pot, that was standing by the kettle.
So any way when I was busy feeding them I tore the tea bag open and gave it to the Forest roaches and was amazed to see them swarm the tea bag and 20mins later the tea was gone.

So tonight after making myself some tea I decided I would try it again, I took a couple of tea bags and throw it in with the roaches and this is what happened.

Very interesting to say the less.

That's very interesting!
I'm gonna give it a shot with my dubia.
Nice discovery Jake!!

Hmmmm nice find!

I shall go and drop some tea bags into my colonies now

:laugh:

I actually re-soak mine before given it to them, why not serve two purposes, food and water!

It is also so amazing there smell, the tea bag has not even touched the egg trys and the roaches are all ready charging the bag.

Also the males seem to have this attitude about them they walk into the crowd and make the other roaches get out there way.

I like this... I love recycling so this is great news. I'm going to try and give some tea bags to my Hissers and lobsters.
But if you find that there is a decrease in your roach population you should please report it.
Thank you for sharing your findings.

Awesome! I'm gonna give this a try!
