Fruit fly maggots are a little small but work well. I smash a bannana and mis in yeast, calcium powder, sugar and a multi Vit.
It's neat to watch them eat small insects.

Yep the fly larva work well as a differant food. They are just really time consuming to seperate from the mix.
I find it easier to just use flour beetle larva. They are alittle bigger and much easier to get out of the substrate.
