[QUOTE="Bdawg, post: 309907, member: 10535"] I cannot recommend these guys for fruit flies. I bought my first culture last Saturday, and it's mouldy. Flies does put within days, the pupa still have about a week to go according to their "experts" who also claim it's perfectly acceptable for a culture to go mouldy within 5 days. No effort to resolve this was made, apart from being offered a little extra on top of my next order, but I probably won't be ordering fruits from them again since they don't bother to prevent mould. I have had crickets and locusts previously with no problem, but please find another supplier for your inverts unless you have a backup food source in the even you get ripped off as I did. The colony is still producing pupa but any colony you attempt to start will carry mould over to it from what I have researched. Any recommendations for a reliable UK vendor is welcomed. [/QUOTE]
