Does anyone know of somewhere that I can buy BSF lava?? I live in Yeppoon, CQ near Rockhampton and want to use BSFL for fish and chicken feed. I have been rumaging though peoples compost bins for a while now looking for them and can't find any. I will be in Brisbane from the 30th of September to the 4th of October and would be happy to pick some up from a Brisbane source. I would also be happy to be a free distribution source in this area for people who want them once I got them established.
Things work quickly around here. It looks like I may be able to get some from Gary! Thanks everyone!
Hi
We would also love to get hold of some BSF. They sound like wonderful creatures.Does anyone know of a supply near Bundaberg or whether they would survive being sent by mail?
Thanks
Trish
Hi,
The BSF larvae that we've been harvesting, for the past week or so, are about half the size they should be. They are the same colour and shape as the full-size larvae but much smaller......and they seem pretty lethargic. I'm hoping that they come good soon.

Hi Gary
Do you think that the smaller BSL larvae is due to the fact that we haven't hit real summer weather yet?
Do you sell larvae? If so, would they survive the mail system?
We are going to start digging around in our compost heaps this afternoon but not confident that we will find any.
