Lady Bugs are pretty easy to buy In large numbers if I remember right, and they fly, and love to hang out in little nooks and crannies.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CWL25NWJ

1500 live Ladybugs for about $10.

i think the big thing is they make a lot of noise

[-] RedWizard@hexbear.net 25 points 4 days ago

Oooh yes that makes more sense. It's early 😴. I'm just imaging all these turfs trying to get ladybugs out of their hair.

The crickets bought for this kind of thing are typically sold for pet food (spiders, snakes and other insect pets eat them). They are always the silent kind because nobody wants noisy crickets as petfood.

They are always the silent kind

I fucking wish agony-consuming

Lol they're supposed to be

You can buy live animals on amazon US?

[-] RedWizard@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago

The US Postal Service will ship and handle packages with live chicks inside.

It's not that the post service will do it that surprises me. It's that amazon does it. There's nothing like this on the UK variant although I know the post service will take live crickets and things.

If they didn't, I'd have to revise my business model a bit.

You can buy a lot of insects that people use for pest control (ladybugs, mantis egg cases) or animal food (crickets, various larva), or pets (ants, centipedes).

And apparently also hermit crabs, which seems extra cruel
