Hey,

I was cleaning out Cadmium's cage this evening, and I noticed what I thought were maggots but after some research I think are probably seed moth larvae underneath her cage. Cadmium is in a detolf and the little wrigglers were between her cage and the Kallax her cage sits on, not inside the cage itself. Is this something to worry about? As I say, I didn't see any inside the cage, and I'm going to stick her seed mix in the freezer because I've seen that suggested. Is there anything else I should do?
