Has anyone else dealt with the challenge of controlling roaches in areas that happen to display live insects? The keepers are understandably concerned that not-yet-dead roaches will get into the insect exhibits and bring the insecticide/diotomaceous earth/ boric acid/ et cetera (depending on what I end up using) with them.
It is an area with other live animal exhibits, so sources of food and water are abundant, as well as nice warm harborages. I don't think there is an easy answer, but I'd love to hear if anyone else has faced this issue, and what they did. Thanks!
