I've had quite a time with escape artist first instars this year. I've had two disappear from their containers on the day they hatched and believe it or not I found them both wearing a pair of magnified readers. Each was climbing on the outside of an adjoining container. I was amazed at how far they could travel. I put a piece of milkweed next to the instar and they climbed on board and I put them back in their containers and changed to lids with no holes and pushed the lids all the way down. I'll change their containers when they get a little larger.
