Rubbermaid - Bins-Housing
The 18-gallon Rubbermaid Roughneck is the most commonly used bin in small to mid-scale cricket production. The footprint accommodates 800 to 1,500 pinheads or 600 to 900 adult crickets at standard density. Lids are typically modified with screen mesh vents for airflow. The opaque dark plastic reduces light stress. Durable enough to withstand repeated cleaning and disinfection cycles with bleach or quaternary ammonium solutions.
