Maybe you should clarify if you mean the water dishes in the cricket 
brooding containers, or the water dishes in the gecko terrariums.  In the 
former case, try sponges.  In the latter case, try smaller water dishes (2 
liter bottle caps), or in the case of needing large water dishes - try 
using strips of hardware cloth, bent in a fashion like a ramp, placed 
directly in the water dish and issuing out.  The crickets will usually use 
the ramp and crawl out.

Subject:        [Gecko] Dry crickets

Does anyone have any good ideas to prevent crickets from drowning in water
dishes? Okay, I've dumped the water out before I've put the crix in . . .
(I've also removed the dishes.)

I've put sticks, shoots of Pothos, etc., in the water, but the crix stay in 
the dishes and drown. Soooo . . . I'm interested in learning what the rest 
of
you may be doing.
