Hi! I've worked at Josh's Frogs for almost a decade, so I think I can offer some good advice in regards to the mold issue. You don't need to stir the media, even if you see dry powder at the bottom after adding your boiling water (I made sure this was added to our new media labels!). It may take a few days for the dry mix at the bottom to be incorporated, but the fly larvae that are laid in the media will churn it up and mix it. This should help keep humidity a bit higher in your culture, and hopefully eliminate your mold issue. If you start seeing some white mold after the first few days, you can mist inside the culture with RO or distilled water, as that's usually a sign that it's a tad too dry. Hope this helps!
So glad this was helpful! If you need flies in the meantime while your new cultures brew, I recommend leaving a couple left over in the original culture. They will keep the culture thriving! Good luck!

@@lindsymandeville4805 perfect timing, I was going to make a culture tonight. Thank you for the information!
Thanks, I am about to make cultures to feed my 50 baby jumping spiders to adult hood
