I started a worm bin on 7/19/19 . The bedding was coconut coir and cardboard. I decided to put a banana peel in the bin to feed the worms .Abut 2 days later I had hundreds of larve . Now I have read that they dont hurt worms and are good for bin .But I dont like them .How do I get rid of them ?
Can we feed cow waste to bsf
Can they bite and or try to live in an animal ? I found them in my recycling trash and my cat is an outside and inside cat and he is all over them.
Thank you about this video .Can this fly survive in Egypt ?
I see the white ones over winter when it gets cold they just stop and then start up again once it gets warm enough
After turning black they are not moving look like dead one.
Iam beginner help me sir.
pleas put the subtitl like this i can traduce in french.
Thenk you for your job
I rear BSF on a small scale millions of them, was using used fruit fly media but at the moment lots of bread, have to add something smelly so the flies lay eggs
Well this was super informative. I have a question, so, I have bsf larvae as reptile food, aka nutri grubs. I kept them in a 6qt container with the "substrate" they came with, some aspen shavings, and I've been feeding them table scraps (now I know probably not to their liking as I used healthy veggies since they are intended to pass what they eat onto my reptile so I have to watch that a little), anyhow, today I checked all my feeders through again and when I was going through my bsf larvae I saw almost microscopic movement. Very very SUPER tiny bug like looking things. I can't identify them. I've tried googling possible parasites that might come with feeder worms because that was my initial thought (and fear!). I used my cell phone to zoom in with the camera and magnify them to actually see their shape and color. They look white, almost clear and seem to be rather round just scurrying around.
Do you have any idea what this could be? I am extremely doubtful that there is a chance I introduced a parasite or otherwise undesirable inhabitant to that container. The only unwanted guests I have are fungus gnats because of my isopod/springtail culture, but the bsf container was not opened frequently and I have never seen a single gnat close to it, they are much too busy infesting my isopod/springtail culture and landing in my coffee.
I would very much appreciate some input on this because seeing the life cycle of a bsf picture has me wondering if they are tiny larvae "hatchlings" I guess for lack of a better description. It could be possible that where I got them from they had some actual adults that were able to lay eggs in the substrate, which they didn't see and then got shipped along in the bedding with the grubs. But until I'm 100% sure and have identified these little things, I won't be feeding any more of these to my gecko.
Any help very much appreciated! Sorry for the long winded comment, just wanted to give as much information as possible to maybe get to the bottom of this
I'm Absolutely loving ur vids and ur soothing music is nice
This was very helpful

why dont supply the grub eggs from adult from pupae. you'll get extra income.
@10:00 What about social insects like honeybees?
All u need is a horticultural heating grow mat used for seed germination to go year round… You are an awesome instructor…thanks
1:22 "When you see the candidate that lost…" Are you saying the moment the person is elected you can drive around and take all the signs of the person who lost from any non-residential, non-business roadside, such as 4-way intersections and you can't get in any trouble at all? I don't want to steal, if it's stealing.
Note to refer back to: 1:43 cut "1 inch by 4 inch strips" of corrugated plastic or cardboard and rubber band them together and hang them above the food.
An eaten watermelon half turned upside down in your garden will very soon be inhabited with BSF larvae underneath it. The watermelon biodegrades in your garden and feeds your worms after the BSF are finished with it.
CornMeal and Corn Flour seems good. I'm trying White Corn Flour mixed with used coffee grounds. I recently added old stale Wheat bran cereal + Corn flakes + Cheerios (oat) to the mix and a little calcium carbonate powder. I'm doing this on a micro-scale. I heard that animal products are not as good, so I abandoned the cat food idea.
So i've recently heard that ground up green pea flour (sold as dry split peas by the pound at grocery stores) kills brown legged grain mites and mold mites at around 1%-10% mixed in with what the mites want to eat, but are harmless to larvae and crickets.
Can you enable automatic captions in this please?
Thanks for this! Going to watch the third part!
Pretty impressed with the way you pronounce Hawai'i! Mahaloz for the information! Cheee!
Dude I got my compost bin full of them in Georgia. Never knew about them until I said, "What the hell is that in my bin!?!" They've been doing great for months, and the older ones have been leaving through a loose part I left in the wood for them and getting ready to become adults!
I accidently started a black fly bin. I only had banana peels, apple cores, bread loaf butts and unwashed eggshells on top of weeds and tall grass I pulled from my garden.
I got them from using whole bananas in my flower pot
Excellent educational discussions ! Helpful. Thanks. Regards.
