    Insects as treats

    No I’m in Atlantic Canada, but we have a few semi-domesticated houseflies, whenever we get a sunny day they appear. Hope to collect some for treats. The sticky traps work well but may have chemicals so am taking a different tack with honey baited drowning trap

    Insects as treats
