Black soldier fly container comparison
Why did we choose this
particular Black
Soldier Fly container?
It was less than half the
price of a BioPod, which seems like a good product,
but we have a soft spot for the smaller homesteading business
operation.
Maybe someone should compare
each one side by side to see who can produce the most grubs? Of course
you would have to put the exact same food scraps in each bin.
Or explore more posts by date or by subject.
About us: Anna Hess and Mark Hamilton spent over a decade living self-sufficiently in the mountains of Virginia before moving north to start over from scratch in the foothills of Ohio. They've experimented with permaculture, no-till gardening, trailersteading, home-based microbusinesses and much more, writing about their adventures in both blogs and books.

Hi, I found some useful information in this study
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/326208271_Improving_feeding_efficiencies_of_black_soldier_fly_larvae_Hermetia_illucens_L_1758_Diptera_Stratiomyidae_Hermetiinae_through_manipulation_of_feeding_conditions_for_industrial_mass_rearing
It seems useful to use small height bins, as more than 10cm of food creates problems to larvae.
