...sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, I gave up even after using the Search feature...
Why is it bad for cultures to mold? Does it make the flies sick? The mantids?
I realize mold spores are difficult to "kill" and are easily transfered. That said, I'm wondering if flies taken from a moldy culture* could be transplanted into a fresh (commercial) culture successfully.
* there's a story behind this, it wasn't initially contaminated
I have photos if that's helpful
