As far as I know, I am the only one on the site with a valid permit from nature conservation for spiders. The permit is to keep baboon spiders in captivity, so has nothing to do with exotic tarantulas.
If you want to contact me drop me a mail on ruanlambrechts@gmail.com, but doubt I will be able to help with anything. I am not personally going to take on nature conservation and risk losing my permit either.

Will I get busted for importing feeder flies for my mantids.

no don't get me wrong, i'm a big lover of nature guys as im one myself....i grew up in the Caprivi area! I wont take on the BushPigs just so that i may have a few slings! There just seems to be so much interest in T's but so little legal knowns!
Its as posted earlier, if you dont pay someone off you wont get anywhere

O well, back to the book, let me see what i can find and how many hurdles i can jump!

Thanks again guys for all the info, i will be a regular at this site from now
