I was hopping that someone out there might know where these small containers can be gotten? They are great for shipping moth ova and are small enough to be put into a envolope. They look like something would hold a battery that you would use in a hand calculator. Any help would be appriated. Richad Attachments:

Have you ever tried this? Sorry I can’t think of what it’s called, just like cardboard but its plastic. It's 4mm thick and fits in an envelope nicely. If you have different ova to ship you just need to make more "compartments". I stuff cotton in both ends of the compartment and then just tape the flap back in place. Best of all you can likely find it for free! Tim Attachments:

Why not just use the clear plastic tube used for fish tank pumps.Its cheap,you just cut it to the length you want and plug the ends with cotton wool.

Twice I have had egg church using something like the cardboard like sheet. Most of the time it works great.
The fish tank tubing also works but larger ova are hard to get out without damaging them. Rich
