Great innovation

How many cups of power and water

What this for for I bought some and no one helping me out ?

I love you chaotic.

Not that I know anything other than watching You tube videos but the larvae move towards the light and I don't think they would see much through that pipe corner. Also there needs to be a few drainage holes in the bottom. Loving Chub Chub.

what medium do I have to put in at the start when my soldierflies arrive?

Will the mosquito net kill your 😮😊bsf since it's treated with a repellant?

If the pupae crawl up the ramp into the collection bottle, how will any be left to turn into flys and move up to the netting area? Do the adult flys die in the betting area or do you release them once in a while?

Hi,I am just wondering how this set up has worked for you? Would you change anything on it? I just ordered my larvae ...ty!

Who takes the thorns off for them in the wild and rinses off the dirt and/or sand? 🤔😂

You can just feed shopping plastic bags apparently, especially the ones made from corn.

What about old flies? How do you clean them up with such super compact structure?

I subscribed b/c you won my admiration by being 1. Frugle, 2. Chaotic, and 3. Adventurous with the element of danger...

So I'm doing one outside. I spent $8 to buy small BSFL to get it started, but supposedly if I just waited 2-3 weeks, I would have attracted them naturally. What's my point? If you're doing this outside, you shouldn't need netting to capture them so they don't fly away and you should be able to attract them naturally. HOWEVER, in the winter time, I LOVE the idea of still being able to do this, by capturing them in the netting. Awesome idea. Now, how to do so and not freak the rest of the family out! hahahahahahahaha

Great and simple will definitely try this model.thanks 🎉🎉🎉

I love the “use what you have” element to this tutorial!

Your inginuity is impressive. Great job.

The BEST video that I’ve found that literally walks you through step by step. Thank you!!

They can eat the whole pad yes as long as it's not thorns

Awesome work. thank you for sharing. You were very determined to do this. Wish I could help you with tools.

Never mind the setting up of the apparatus. I need to know how do i catch a fly or get eggs or lavae. Not one video tells you those points. I am in Africa. All videos are shown in america or other countries.

Wax worms can chew the cardboard don't use that

Halo dear I want to start farming of bsf in pakistan i want to buy them for farming in pakistan Please reply 😢

This is intriguing. I assume the 4 stages (egg, larva, pupa, adult) overlap, so how does one keep the moths from flying out when you want to remove some larvae for lizard or fish food? Also, do you need to change the cardboard from time to time? How often? Why old fashioned oats and not quick oats? Does it have to be raw honey or is grocery store brand OK?

Nice work on this video. A lot of effort setting the camera up, narrating and editing. Also great that it's concise. 10/10

Awesome cinematography and information! I have been thinking for a long time of making a system which is effectively identical to what you've constructed here. I would be interested in a future video of yours to see how your system is holding up and see it in action some more, a bit of a retrospective, ie do you think this is the best design for small-scale non-commercial applications, or what would you change if you were to remake it? Much thanks!

Very good video ❤❤❤❤

I loved it. Mine would be so similar, I would say I have a (insert proper tool here), but it is buried in the shed, and yeah, I'm just gonna melt that with my soldering iron; with a little "Too lazy to worry about measuring for accuracy on my maggot bucket, lol." I wonder if I should start taping some of the bizarrety of me?

Great video 👍

😍

Way to go! Excellent job!

I am from Egypt and have a small farm It is a desert land that has been reclaimed I would like to communicate with you directly to exchange information regarding this fly and vermicompost worm

How could i order for BSF PUPA?

you are amazing

That is the most jerry rigged thing ive ever seen in my life, i love it.

Very good video

Free chicken feed.

💪💪

6:03 that is waaaaaaay too wet for the larvae. It's better for the bedding/substrate of BSF larvae to be a little too dry, than to be too wet. Other fly species don't mind or prefer or even require sopping wet substrate, but not Black Soldier Flies. I suggest mixing in Saw Dust (rehydrated pellets used for (food) grill smokers) to help absorb excess water/waste. I personally love adding in some lump hardwood charcoal broken up into smaller pieces. Activated Carbon would be better and less work, but it costs a huge amount more money and probably isn't much different for this purpose. A huge back of lump hardwood charcoal is $12-$30 (usually around $16-$18) for 8 to 20 lbs and would leave you with plenty to spare. While Activated Carbon for a 9oz container is around $8, which is less than 1 lb. Since we aren't trying to purify water with it, any absorbing done by regular lump hardwood charcoal will be beneficial enough, just don't pulverize it into dust, make the pieces around the size of a golf ball or as small as 1/4 that, of course any size is better than nothing if you just want to toss in whatever pieces you want.

Bery nice,thanks!!

If you serve the proper pads, opuntia pads, Beardies eat the entire pad.

Interested how cani contact u

It's always great to see a new take on a BSF bin ... Just PLEASE everyone try to understand just how easy these amazing insects are to raise.. You don't need mosquito netting, wood that will rot in the elements, fancy swinging latches, etc ... As an extreme example, there is a 'biopod' (i.e. plastic container with an incline) that sells for over $200 dollars... That is pretty crazy when you look at how many quality HDPE plastic containers there are everywhere as on a bike ride, I found a 35 lb kitty litter container that someone tossed out.. It works great with a few small holes drilled in the sides below the rim and also the bottom, with a bungie cord to keep the racoons out... The main point is, take advantage of the unbelievable hardiness of these creatures and know you can build a great fixture for them with very minimal materials... Also: if your colony conditions has sludge in it (like at the 6 min mark in this video); you need more drainage/ more aeration... I'm not trying to be critical, but that amount of sludge is a little gross and might prevent newcomers from starting up their own setup.. Drainage and Aeration are really the only two things to think about, and they go hand in hand... (The fact that the BSF can survive in those conditions is a testiment to just how hardy they are)

What do the flies eat?

Who puts a cat on a leash?

I love her.

Great job and love the creative effort that went into your setup! Question... did you order mature black soldier flies to get the colony started or did you allow some of the larva to hatch? I have larva growing and have been taking some out and putting them into a bucket with dirt hoping they'll hatch & start reproducing.

i was laughing how haphazard your product is😂 but no one will laugh after watch your product working really well. great vid!

She's so dang funny! Love her style of recklessness, as I can connect with that. Super job! You go girl!

Great video.
