so, that's an easy way to start a wild flying fruit fly culture, to leave a juice bottle outside with a small hole in it? Could be useful if anyone's fruit fly cultures begin to run low.
When I was away, I realized that wild fruit flies are in some place and aren't in others. All my fruits can get rotten here and I still have no FFs. But in other regions of this world, when fruits are going bad, FFs are all over it!so, that's an easy way to start a wild flying fruit fly culture, to leave a juice bottle outside with a small hole in it?

do what the rest of us do.. order it from http://www.mantisplace.com/So can you add flour instead of masa? - I can't buy it here :/
I know this post goes back a ways, but it still answers questions. It's been 6 days and still no Hydei maggots.Is it a Hydei culture? They don't produce maggots until a while. I know from exp. Put like 10 inside there, and a while later, it totally explodes with maggots. The whole things is practically a writhing mass of maggots.
Yes, you are waiting impatiently. Hydei reproduces slow - it takes at least 2 weeks for you to see maggots.I know this post goes back a ways, but it still answers questions. It's been 6 days and still no Hydei maggots. Waiting impatiently.
If this is true, how do places that sell wingless fly culture keep them wingless? Only breed the wingless/flightless ones?oh 1 thing..i was reading about wingless or flightless being able to fly after u used them for such a long time..how long until;l this will happen to me?
yer there a pain..what i do sometimes is have small hole in side and take them out with long tweezers.Yeah, they'd be nice to use as food, but the only thing is that I'm having trouble with containing/escaping houseflies - I can't imagine how it'd be like if I accidently released an entire culture of FLYING ff's... :blink: :wacko:
