This is the kind of stuff I like too. Do you stay home or abroad. I asked because it's the first time I see anyone with a red worm bin in his backyard here. I'd like to put together a BSFL bin too to feed chickens and for a small backyard clarias pond.

I live in Port-Harcourt. The world has become a global village so any good practice aboard should be replicated here and one of such is vermicomposting for organic farming. I also want to breed the black soldier fly, but yet to get the feed stock to commence either in larve or pupae stage. I am hoping We can get help on this forum in this regard.

Anyone that can help. Please contact me my mail through this forum. It would be much appreciated.

Insects are going to be a major part of human nutrition(directly and indirectly) in the not so distant future. I even read a FAO report recently and they backed their call for more insect inclusion in our diets with a Bible verse from Leviticus 6 or thereabouts. I found that very interesting. By the way, you mentioned you vermicompost with redworms, are you a backyard gardener/farmer? I learnt they make very good organic manure.

Yes I have a red worm bin it is about 2 months old now very beautiful looking vermicompost in my bin. I understand It is the best organic fertilizer. I am a backyard farmer for now with a pilot aquaponics farm and now I plan to raise some tomatoes and other crops using the vermicompost also as a pilot to see the outcome. I am an advocate for organic food void of the chemicals from commercial fertilizers. There is a plan to expand when I have acquired the experience.

@ CeeteeOoo The money has been smelling around me for some months now. There is a BSF website that maps BSF sighting around the world. It would be nice to provide an update on this website that BSF are in Nigeria because right now it is shown to be present only in South Africa, Ghana and Kenya. Imagine the social economic benefit of this insect. I have basically concluded that this insect was created by God to serve man. I am amazed at their value.

Peterbabs I have seen your mail and have dropped you a reply. Please let us connect. I already have a red worm bin in my house which is thriving very well after two failed attempts. In my further research, I found that the black soldier fly is a more voracious composter. Imagine what we can do with this insect in dealing with our large organic waste and as a food supplement for fish and poultry. I am in solution mode so I like to get my hands on some crubs.

I am interested in BSF breeding. can anyone help me with the pupae to start my BSF farm?
