Ok, I got a three drawer system for the mealies. There are a few problems though.

A) There are small gaps at the top of each drawer. While I know the mealworms can't climb the slick sides to get out, I'm worried that ants or other insects could crawl IN. I had an ant problem a week or so ago when I set up my new 10g tank for my molly fry. After setting down some ant traps, I don't really see any more ants, but I'm still worried.

B) The drawers do not lock into the frame. My cats have learned how to open these types of drawers and I need to figure out a way to keep them shut. I was thinking of drilling small holes in each of the 'handles' and the bar going across the top of the drawer and using either some kind of small chain (like on those fake metal necklaces) or somthing like that. String would just entice my cats to play with it and it is cut too easily.

Other than that, I'm very excited to be starting my own mealworm 'farm'.
