you can also professionalize it all and then make money with insect proteins or edible insects ;)

I'd imagine there's a market for pest control in organic farming as well.

In the course of my mantid breeding, I was forced to deal with breeding flies, especially houseflies and blowflies, but also black soldier flies, because mantids need live food. I found that breeding flies had to be well organized, otherwise you end up with too many flies all of a sudden and possibly at the wrong time.... But currently the mantids are big enough to feed grasshoppers too. That makes it easier. Is anyone here currently breeding insects? Privately, professionally?
