Larva turned into balls, balls eaten by fish, fish eaten by man, man's leftover eaten by larva
Amen
The circle of life
The circle of shit
@@theyellowbrad8168 no the circle of s h i t
cannibalism :D
5:04 Broken cookies and crackers and scraps from a chicken nugget factory?? Hmm.....
suspiciously similar to my own diet
conclusion: you are a larva in human disguise
larva is your new name ok
larva man soon to be bug man ready to eat your left over
Later in the week: Florida man wraps himself in blanket and exclaims he's a larva
@@manictiger only in Florida
is it exclaim... or proclaim?
Who else thought they were going to drop live maggots for fish to eat sushi
i thought the same .. cause in poultry they feed those liveworms to chickens
@@tektek10 Unfortunately i don't have chicken.
Imagine buying a fish and finding its gut is full of maggots 🤦🏻♂️🤮
@@Chris-hp9be dude if you eat smaller canned fish, youre eating the fishes intestines and waste products, shit is shit no matter what it was before xd
@@seatbater6211 Dude they clean them before cooking and canning them. Even the smaller ones they purge them before dealing with them.
Why was this reccomended this now? This is actually kind of cool.
Hello there
You are right about that
@@LTRX_ lllllllllllllllllll juga
omg, I didn't realize at first, that the Barry White music was actually playing for the flies. I thought it was just edited into the video to be funny. This is like a real life version of that Simpson's episode where they used Barry White to lure snakes. They responded to the vibrations just like the flies in this video!
Yeah, thats weird that they are playing that to *"files"*
the simpsons always finds a way to predict the future
Barry White is the real Lord of the Flies
I loved that episode when homer went all Bruce Lee! It’s called whacking day.

The real Lord of the flies.
Heh

0:46 Is that a fricking lemon with a fork stabbed into it-
Yes it’s an easy way to get the lemon juice out
who's bright idea was it to play Barry white's song in the love shack?....
Clevon Forrester I believe that it was my idea. www.pyramidpurefoods.com/blog/page/3/
I don't know. Who idea was it to drink the white, milky substance that excretes from a lactating cows tit? Humanity is just down right strange.
Clevon Forrester hahahahaha
A thirsty man
To be honest, we the growing human population, soon we won't have a choice but to have more GM of animals and plants. we have no choice
the fact that he can hold them without recoiling makes him my hero.
Tronald Dump indeed, a lot of practice, I guess.
Oh, god I hate fucking maggots.
Grow some balls omg..
Wouldn't be the first time I ate a worm
@Adam you dont have to be tough to touch maggots ?? Ever fished?
It's only a matter of time until you're complaining to your waiter that there are no flies in your soup >v>
hahah. thats rich
By process of elimination, they found that Barry White's music produced the optimal mating rate. "Can't get enough of your love babe" now plays on repeat 24/7
This is the most educational piece from here, I feel. I really enjoyed this video
Wesley Dunson it is tho
Wesley Dunson idiot
So eat your maggots.
Educational but still slightly abit of propaganda, if you didnt noticed yet, the country right below the States is also a well known insect eater country. Talking that western world is not comfortable with consuming insects..... And as I know during the 3 months study in Shanghai last year, I hardly see any of those gross insect meals. But when I was in France and Germany, Snails and all sort of creepy sea creatures. I'm open for any comments. Greetings from Norway
Me too. At least I learned something today
not all heroes need to save a falling plane, this guy is making sure we can all eat seafood for a very long time, thanks Glen
Its gross but I think this man is doing a very eco friendly job that has to be done, kudos my fine sir.
There is no cure for complicity or stupidity.
@@msheart2 it's clear, that it's the brainwashed, greenwashed fee simple minded allows psychopaths to get away with the scam that is climate change as they're engineering our weather and climate create floods and droughts to minimize food production, steal our groundwater, mandate their toxic DNA altering vaccines, destroying food crops with gmo as they use it to sterilize millions,

@rosy, and your point is????
@@RosyOutlook2 pleases be joking. PLEASE!!!!
Hah, the BSF farming is quite interesting. I actually started a research project on it back in 2006. It didn't go far as it was just myself and another student with no academic leadership, but the research was solid. We just didn't have the resources or long term involvement to see it through at the time. we did build a full greenhouse, larva beds, and started a colony. Our end goal was to produce biofuel actually and that is where it ran out of steam.
Fishermen have been using black soldier fly larvae forever. They're excellent bait. Some raise their own by feeding them vegetable scraps, which has little odor.
This was made 4 years ago and I've never watched any videos like this why is it it my recommended now?
yeah dude youtube is weird
Because RUclips is a strange place and I just got this. I watched it and I have no idea why. I'm heading over to conspiracy RUclips to see if there's a theory about this.
It's gootube's newest big brother agenda showing video which sell the finite resource propaganda as they remove videos and delete accounts of great works which expose the truth about the UN, about climate change, and one world order under the guise of hate speech.
They don't want you to know anything which is the truth, we're putting a kink in their new world order. Worth watching before it's gone no it's not mine... Why Big Oil Conquered The World - ruclips.net/video/0wlNey9t7hQ/видео.html
And now it is 5 yrs... And it has popped up again....
Somebody probably watched a related video on a device that was logged into your RUclips account.
I had been using them for composting and they honestly work great.
I'm playing Barry White right now, waiting for my wife to hear it. It's on like sugar cookies!
@marwanmohd1 what does his wife being black or not have to do with anything? Race doesn't matter!
@marwanmohd1 and you are what skin color???
The first 80% of this video: "Aaww they're raising little fly larvae to feed the fish."
The end: "THEN WE TURN THE MAGGOTS INTO PELLETS." D:
It makes me so happy to see, whenever somebody out here, trying to contribute with sustainable food growing. :-))
Okay we can never ever sue or get this fly guy in legal trouble, because this sounds like the set up for a supervillain backstory
Your pfp is that one from the Most Disgustong Krabby Patty, fits with the video's gross maggots subject
The nice and timely idea, no doubt...!
wouldn't the fish eat the whole maggot without the need to process them?
yeah they probably would, when you go course fishing there is no problem with the fish eating them, why not just give them as maggots
Yes and no. Farm fish are raised from birth to plate size, so the small fry or fingerlings is not going to able to swallow the whole maggot. Commercial pellet feed range from powder to about 1/4 size.
probably because they want to add filler like cheap soy and corn to make more food and more money.
easier to transport, easier to store.
Longer shelf-life too.
I grow these here in Lake County Florida I think it's a wise decision to get into this because you can do so many things with black soldier flys they can break down any kind of manure like a dairy farms chicken farms....
No kidding. I used to live in Lake county!
What an awesome problem solving method. Food waste becomes food for the larva which become an affordable food source for fish which becomes a more viable food source for people. Amazing innovation.
I can't even look at a maggot without squirming but this guy can have them wiggling about on the palm of his hand. 😯😯😯
These people could also sell the maggots as fish bait for extra money.
Damisha Owais There is a difference between sustainable profit and absolute profit. Learn a bit.
Dumbass don’t understand
I believe everyone knew that fish ate insects from the jump but, there are feeder insects like crickets, mealworms, waxworks, roaches. And there are feeder fish, rodents, and lizards that are breed to be fed to other animals. And I have freeze dried mealworms that I feed to my Tegu and the bottle says “Freeze Dried Mealworms for birds, reptiles, and fish” so just feed the fish plain insects live or dead.
My thoughts as well.
Although I assume that freeze drying and processing them makes them more shelf stable for selling to a larger market.
By making them into pellets they can add other vitamins and its easier for a farm to order bulk pellets and have them for the next year instead of ordering bulk larvae and having half of them pupating into flies in a month
Mixing them with corn and soy makes the pellets cheaper it’s like cutting cocaine with baking soda
Pellets store longer and better.
Very informative and worth watching 👍👍
In villages, we dump all the cattle dung on one place, and when we free our chickens, they immediately run towards that pile of dung for feeding. Where thousand of flies larve , earthworm, beetle larve and more importanty the undigested seeds. So for us the waste pile of cow dung is the perfect food for chickens
ew?
so that's how shitty chicken is made
Bruh no wonder your country is shit, and has so much flies and sickness.
@@tripleastacz372 Americans should have no say in this. US is a shithole rn.

I love how Glen tries to introduce the Love Shaq with a straight face lol
I live really close to Yellow Springs.. great place to visit, nice to hike around!
I’ve watched this vid like seven times and youtube still won’t stop.
sir madam how are you? im benedict from the philippines. would happen to know whats the email address of these LAB soldier fly .. i want to start to culture it here manila phils. to process waste
We eat insects indirectly everyday. Your skittles, your strawberry yogurt, your Starbucks strawberry Frappuccino contains insect juice. Google "E120".
For some reason, the thought of fly evolving into something more scary just hit me.
Excellent video.
I think part of the key, is in managing and optimizing the beneficial by-product gas production, in larger operations. Even the greenhouse gases are useful, so long as they are captured, then scrubbed, etc. for use, etc.
Bug waste can go to fertilizer and soil building operations..
They've been doing this in Indonesia for 30 years lol
They got Barry White music over in Indonesia
the Berry White song for the fly "love shack" killed me
RUclips recommendations bring us all here in warmth and gentle tiding
Brilliant... and good choice in music lol
Smart and intelligent man, eco frndly,no food wasted and the ocean is not overfish due to fish meal. 👍
They live in their own food. . .?
Sign me up!
Hey Glen . . . both thumbs up; it was a great maggoty meeting at SB-hatchery :D
Slimy yet satisfying
Insects don’t have omega 3 which fish oil has and needed in fish food. But the best opportunity now is coming from algae. Just like naturally where omega 3 comes, it has omega 3 fish loves it and is sustainable.
You can even use them to break down the agricultural wastes to turn into biomass...
@BEYOND BIRTHDAY It will barely retain any of the original Omega 3s after being so heavily processed. People have no idea what they eat nowadays. Farmed fish does not have the same nutritional values as their wild counterparts. Half of the labels are FULL OF SHIT AND LYING. The studies were made on special selected individuals not on the 98% rest fed with food coloring to make their meat look red. Look it up.
@@RheeasDomain lying on a food label is literally a crime, i dont think anyone can fool this many people liek that without getting caught.
You telling me that they mate thanks to music omg I'm so done 😂😂
Good job!!! I love this idea... Thanks!!!
this channel will blow up.
I reported the video for sexual content xD

Why!?
soylent green is healthy for you.
throw grandma in the larvamill and feed the ground up flies to fish farms.
very funny lol
Peter Negan We're just accelerating what nature will do taking its sweet time anyways. Sorry to remind you your life has no meaning and importance beyond your mortal existence to anyone or anything but yourself.
So enjoy life while you can. Before you're fish food.
I don't think that is how it was made. I would have to go rewatch the old movie first but I don't think that they used flies
You are a genius my friend. now we can be one step closer to saving the small fish from the ocean
Great job!
It doesnt have Omega 3 so it cant replace fish meal. But would be a good source of food for birds.
For fish micro algae should be used.
I dont think carnivorous fish will eat microalgae
Ya know nothing like scratching all over while watching
Sounds very clever. Good idea.
Gran visión e infraestructura felicidades desde Mazatlan , Sinaloa, Mexico. Por acá trabajamos en esto y avanzado andamos saludos.
03:34. Hahaha 😁 I just love how when they talk about reproduction they include Mr. Barry White's , RIP, music..😂😂😂😂😂
Setting the mood 🤣
Ahh! I could go for a nice plate of maggots right now :D
fried mealworms are nice. crispy caterpillar.
This seems like a great idea. I can see a hundreds of these big factories all over America. It seems like a risky business, but if done correctly I can see it making a lot of profit and a way to benefit the country or world. They should also create fish manure soil, that way they can broaden whatever they're suppyling.
This sounds like an awesome job
...interesting that nobody uses the term...MAGGOTS...
@Corvus Crow Leave the Marine recruits out of this;)
What could be the next big thing?
Fidget spinners......apparently.
Great idea!
Great work fly guy ,earth needs more people like him.
Let's start processing jihadists into dog food
I love to watch your Video. I live in Indonesia and also grow BSF traditionally. I am interested in visiting your place and learn from you about how to use BSF in densely populated regions such as like Java in order to solve the problems in relation with environmental pollution and producing protein at the same time. Thank you.
We aren't facing a food shortage because of the lack of resources, we are facing most of our economic problems because of bad resource management, not lack of resources.
I'm not going to say whether its intended or or just a result of stupidity (although i actually have an opinion on that) to avoid making the argument political, but the earth we live on has the resources to support about 21 billion humans, 14 billion more than what we already have, so we don't need to find alternatives for our diets, we just need to handle our resources better.
I think this is such an amazing experiment. Know this is an old video but really hope the guy got to where he wanted to be...
Also the Barry White killed me! 😂😂😂
I wish you great success.
Very funny story. Best greetings from entomologists in Ukraine!
I want to become an entomologist! Hello :)
@@lostrecords5945 What is your home country or city? Where are you from?
@@VictorFursov United States, Georgia. I am actually going to a college soon that has an entomology department (University of Georgia) to pursue entomology.
What is the cost per ton of production? Is it actually practical?
They're eating food waste thrown away from farms, households etc, so its cost efficient. And since people simple DEMAND all the fish they can inhale, you could say yes.
It would be more "practical" to just eat the soldier fly larvae though, or stop throwing away as much food.
Considering we are emptying the oceans of fish, is it actually practical to NOT do this? We will have to start looking to insects if we are to feed the world population. And it might even be as a protein source for humans. Chewing on a worm might not be too tempting, but in the shape of a burger, does it really matter as long as it is juicy and tasty? ;)
@@Imtotallydiggingthis it matters to me.

Ok, then enjoy steak while it lasts.
I love it when the old guy says "it's healthy" and then it cuts to fried shrimps haha

does peta protect insects too?

@@vince5572 every vegan I have ever talked to is 100% okay with lab grown meat, and many of the research in the field is being done by vegan companies like "Just" so where exactly are you getting your facts from?
@@kenetickups6146 Is this just a meat eater circle jerk? have you ever talked to a vegan? lmfao.
What if you could get rid of your septic system and have these guys take care of the waste? That waste can be fed to worms, and you know I love to fish.
depends on what kind of waste you are feeding. If you just feed these larvas random waste that could spell disaster as some of those insects may be carrying disease which can be carried over to animal hosts.
I can only wonder how often he has nightmares of giant flies coming to claim vengeance for their children.
Absolute mad lads
fun fact: fish meal used to feed some farmed fish uses ethoxyquin as a preservative...this poison builds up in their flesh in alarming levels.

What's with the hate of GMOs? It's scaring people away, making them think they make radioactive waste or something
Ya Boi Yeah..... people do think its radioactive and so...... in other words believes in fake science...
Ya Boi - personally I don't like GMOs because of the companies behind them like Monsanto. I'm neutral on GMOs themselves though I think they're a large reason for increased food allergies. If you cut DNA from nuts to wheat, ppl allergic to nuts might now be allergic to wheat. And if they've been made with pesticide-like qualities, how can we say that they might not also irritate some people's internal digestive tract?
I'm curious what you dislike about Monsanto. Are you against capitalism and free enterprise?
Cyber Pleb Monsanto does some real scummy practices, it's not about making money it's how they do it. They exploit farmers and try to fuck them over, they are one of those evil companies that just wrecks lives for profit.
Whats with the hate of us hating GMOS? Is it parasitic trying to use your little brain to spread to me?
Thanks 🙏🏾
Great idea
If we did not waste so much food we wouldn't have to eat Flies
but we should avenge them for eating our dead bodies
easy like
good idea,, could you feed your fish directly with the live larva?
How are earthworms compared to these fly larvae ?
Which one would be more efficient/fast in munching up our food waste ?
I Always Eat Flies Now
-Bleacher Report
I wonder if the maggots like jazz
so epically clever, using consistent waste to support the creation of new food
Do they have to be dried, ground and pelletized? Can they simply de dropped into a tank of fish?
5:21 "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
This is actually pretty smart and also seems like a good company to invest in small startup with a large demand I'd have to know more about the process though and the cost of excess waste but they're definitely on to something here
The music keeps them still thats the funniest thing ive seen
Goodjob.. Brilliant idea.. Genius
