Need some pest killer...

[calvin415]

Alright, I've got 220lbs of LR "cooking" in a pair of trash cans and need to make sure there are not any mantis shrimp hiding... I thought I heard Inteceptor will take care of any inverts, can I do a superdose to make sure this will kill any mantis shrimp? Where can I get Inteceptor???

Thanks!!!

 

[calvin415]

Anyone?

How big are the holes in the rocks? If you catch one, I'd like to see it.

 

[calvin415]

Too much rock to try to inspect... Not that I'd see it anyway, they hide deep.

 

[murfman]

Where is the rock from?

Eric,

I THINK you can order the interceptor from 1-800-petmeds,The commercial you see all the time on tv.

 

[calvin415]

FIJI

Thanks Haj, I'll check it out. Do you know if it should take care of the buggers?

 

[murfman]

I didn't think Fiji had a big mantis shrimp issue like the Carribean did.

Just stick your hand in there for a bit!

Hmm does anyone else see an acrylic mantis trap in the future?

Russ said that same as TJ. You can go to the PET MEDS website and just click that you have a prescription.

Found it on PetMeds just want to make sure it will work. Last batch of Fiji I got (100lbs) had 3 mantis shrimp, with 220lbs I don't want to take a chance... Trying to find out if it will kill the buggers.

I have 1 pill that I can spare. But I think Dan needs it. Im not sure. Dan, do you want this pill? If not Eric, you can have it. Also, PM Castlerock. I think he was selling a pack for 25 bucks. Im not sure if he still has it though.

 

[murfman]

Hmmmmm if you could catch any you could make some good coin to finance future endevors!!!!

 

[calvin415]

Thanks Russ, I can buy some, I just want to make sure it will work.

Murph, they are next to impossible to catch especially while trying to cook that much rock in trashcans.

 

[Deuce67]

It will work. How much water is the rock cooking in?

 

[calvin415]

Each can has about 30 gallons of water in it...

 

[Deuce67]

1/2 a pill on each should nuke em if yah got them. A whole will probably wipe out every crusty (pods).

 

[Darknes]

I have heard that freshwater dips work on getting them out, but I've never tried it.

 

[Darknes]

You could also try smashing the rocks into tiny little pieces to ensure there are no mantis' left.

 

[calvin415]

Which size pill should I get though? They have lots of different size dog packages... I can replace pods easy enough, I just want to make sure I get rid of any pests.
