This is a video of an adult black soldier fly laying eggs in my homemade barrel composter. It won’t be long before the eggs hatch and I have a composter full of black soldier fly larvae processing my compost into black gold.

DIY black soldier fly larvae self harvesting bin

I have been testing the first component of the DIY black soldier fly larvae self harvesting bin. The first component is the harvesting system which allows mature larvae to naturally migrate out of the food waste via two migration ramps. The larvae can be collected and used as chicken or fish feed.

This homemade bsfl compost bin can be made in a few hours with materials that can be sourced from any hardware store. Click here for more info…
