oyster bucket enclosure
    #10104896 - 04/04/09 11:53 AM (14 years, 10 months ago)

So I built a PVC greenhouse and stuck it outside not thinking about the possibility of fungus gnats. Two days ago I harvested some king oysters to find them riddled with maggots. Yuck. Now I've got a blue oyster bucket ready to fruit and I don't want any more maggot mushrooms. I don't really have any indoor fruiting space so I need to build something gnat-proof for outdoor use. I also have 2 5lb mycobags ready to spawn and need to have a surefire way to fruit their buckets once they are colonized.

Would putting fine mesh screen up to keep the gnats out be enough? Does anyone here have experience building medium size outdoor fruiting enclosures?

I'm thinking of some sort of frame with either stretched plastic or paneling across the outside. I would cut holes for FAE and put fine mesh in them to keep the bugs out. Any recommendations?

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” - Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear

How about tossing in a gecko or anole?
