Black Soldier Fly Larvae
(the compost pirahna)
We are now working with the black soldier fly (BSF) and Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) in our compost. When it comes to an efficient compost organism the BSFL are about the most efficient at eating/chewing 99% of what goes into the compost. We have instructions below available to build your own larva bin or you can get the EZ BSF Larva Lab that is specifically made for feeding/raising/harvesting the larvae. The full lifecycle of the black soldier fly can be as little as 5 weeks and as long as 8 months (depending on temperature and food availability). Watch our educational videos below:
Live black soldier fly larvae (bsfl), size: small
Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are used to compost waste or convert the waste into animal feed. The fras created is a great fertilizer for your garden/plants. In the larvae stage they convert the waste they are fed into protein and fat (this is the larvae). Great for feeding to birds, reptiles, fish…
The small larvae average 1/4” and smaller. Average weight is between .005-.01 grams.
The shipping is already included in the price. We ship Larvae every Tuesday and Friday. If you are shipping to a PO box, do not select hold for pick up. There is an extra charge for the “hold for pick up” on small orders since this option requires priority mail.
Once you complete ordering for this product, the instructions will be emailed to you within 24hours. If you aren't seeing this, try checking your spam/junk folders!
