Took me a week to read through 25 pages of this thread.

I am excited to start a BSF colony this Spring with my own DIY design. I noticed BSF in my traditional compost last Summer. Some of that compost found it's way into houseplants with inactive BSF pupae. We had maybe a dozen or so BSF emerge this winter in the house. I took in the inactive compost in January and saw the adult BSF by the end of January.

Is anyone still selling (cheap) starter BSF packs? I may get a BioPod if I can afford one by the end of the Summer. My first BSF cultivation attempts in the past 3 weeks were failures & all were filled with pest fly maggots. I was also way overloading my buckets with scraps creating anaerobic conditions. I am starting over small this time & working on my DIY bucket (2G.)

I like BSF so much that I gave an Informative speech in my college Public Speaking class about the benefits of BSF composting.
