Extreme Yields
We've tested our media with wingless melanogaster, golden delicious, Turkish gliders, golden and regular hydei - and all varieties have excellent production.
Fresh Ingredients
We pay close attention to how long our ingredients have been on hand, and keep our supplies far from our producing cultures. We believe quality ingredients are the most important step in mite control and elimination.
Tips and Troubleshooting
Extraordinary yield from the first new generation of flies is our specialty. Care must be taken not to add too many flies to a fresh culture, or you will 'burn out' the culture and not see a second boom in production.
While we are confident our media works in most humidity situations, sometimes cultures need a little help in very dry environments (or in the winter). If you find the larvae only climb halfway up the cup, a strip of packing tape across the center holes is a cheap, easy solution for temporary humidity issues.
Dusting your flies immediately before using them to begin a new culture, and not transferring the dust can help keep mites under control.
This is for 2lbs of media which is enough for 20 cultures.
