What is the solution for this? I just got a four level sterilite tower which I'm thinking of using for silkworms and superworms.

Even if you got the aluminum window mesh, which I know is really tiny and wouldn't allow bran or gutload out, I'd be really afraid that I was dropping invisible superworm eggs all over my floor. Is that even possible? If so maybe the solution is to jostle the drawer around for a few seconds before you open it, to hopefully sift them out?

Just move your beetles to a new tub periodicaly. Problem solved.

Pretty close to what that guy does.

That guy is using Aluminum "Window Screening"..I use it for my mealworms and supers...Ill try to get some pictures soon

What Jacob is using is too big, it is 1/4" "Chicken Wire"...

Jacob, your filter system would work much better if you cut out a bigger "floor space" and used Aluminum "Window Screening".
