Hi all,
I would like to master the use of a sieve, (containing the beetles),in order to have a consistent worm size.
Could anyone advise me as to how often the sieve is moved to a new box and the use of a water source (carrot) for the beetle?
If the beetles lay eggs on the carrot, could they be eating their own eggs? What is the best substrate to use? I have oat bran and maize meal which falls thru quite quickly.
Hope this makes sense and hope someone can help,thanks,
Jacqui
