no theyll get eaten, the worst i had was baby brown crickets box, i had a full grown black male cricket, and it bit some of my geckos tale off, it was hiding under the egg box stuff, and when there were just a few left, i put teh egg case in the tank as she liked to stalk and hunt the babies.. that big cricket went to the cats LOL
The maggots will eventually turn into flies and then they will spread in your house. I hate fruit flies.
I am switching to feeding giant mealworms more so than crickets now. Well for the geckos that will eat the worms. My Panther gecko and AFT Gecko will only eat crickets. They key though is to gut load the crap outa them. I keep mine in oatmeal and feed them red potatoes for moisture.
