Gnats!!!
    #7873752 - 01/13/08 03:02 PM (16 years, 19 days ago)

So I have...
- 1.5 litre Tupperware tub that has 1/2 pint pf tek cake, spawned to pasteurized hpoo, 6 holes in lid covered with micropore.
- It was fully colonized so I cased it with some pasteurized MGMC, gave it a bit of a spray, then, put the lid back on. Taped up the sides (for light) and left it in a nice dark place for 4 days.
- Hpoo and mgmc were pasteurized in jars in a pot of water, the water was at 178F, and the centre of the jar was at 160F for over an hour.

I just popped the lid to check for myc and there are gnats!! About 5 of the little buggers walking on top of the casing and a couple flew out!

How the hell did they get in there?
Can they survive pasteurizing or did one just manage to sneak in when I cased?

What to do with the tray?
