Mealworms vs BSFL, which is better?

Описание: I run a mealworm farm and sell live mealworms, not dried ones, so my perspective is based on hands-on experience. Whether mealworms or black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are better depends on your needs.

BSFL have a much shorter life cycle (10–14 days) compared to mealworms (2–4 months), making them cheaper and more efficient for poultry feed. They are also excellent at converting food waste into protein.

Mealworms require grain-based diets and take longer to grow, but they offer a different nutritional profile, making them a good alternative for certain applications.

BSFL can thrive on waste streams, including pre-consumer food waste and even manure, while mealworms are less suited for such inputs due to mold and grain mite risks.

When buying dried insects, always ask about their food sources and processing methods to ensure quality and safety for your animals.
