ULOG 155 - Heaps of BSF buzzing in the backyard

View this post on Hive: ULOG 155 - Heaps of BSF buzzing in the backyard



At lunch time, I went in the backyard to harvest some worms for customers and I was greeted by a bunch of Black Soldier Flies buzzing around. This is the first year we have so many BSF in the garden. I guess it's because the garden has more and more plants and that makes it the perfect breeding location for them as the adult males usually just wait on a leaf for a female to fly over and chase her down.

BSF do drink but don't eat anymore in their fly form. They also don't lay eggs on the food so don't get in contact with food and manure (at least not if it they are fresh and wet). They are very clean and they are not considered pests nor are they vectors of diseases.

In this video I'm showing the BSF on various plants in my garden and also few of the bait trays and a BSFL bin I've setup for a friend.

You all know that your Steem password is the access to all your STEEM, SBD, posting, transferring, everything... right?
So, please, follow these simple steps and keep yourself safe:

  1. Apart from the initial setup of your account, NEVER use your password ANYWHERE, if stolen, it will give full control to your Steem account.

  3. To login for creating content and curating, use your Private Posting Key
  4. To make transfers and account operations, use your Private Active Key
