Fly
Larvae
Entofood masters breeding and biology of a specific diptera: Hermetia illucens aka Black Soldier Fly.
This species, spread worldwide, can process a very large range of feedstuff which give a powerful sustainable model where food waste and organic side-streams can be recycled by the insect larvae, a detritivorous invertebrate.
