Mash potato flakes: Not all work

[OGIGA]

I ran out of my box of mash potato flakes a couple weeks ago so I started using a new box. It's a different brand. It's giving me a problem though. None of my hydei flies are producing maggots in there. However, my (flying) melanogasters are multiplying faster than ever (probably due to good temperatures). I don't know what's in there, but I guess if your flies aren't working in your mash potatoes, try a different kind.

since you live in California you have WINCO their. I buy mine in bulk out of the barrels at the store they work fine there just not real white like the box kind. There cheaper bulk rate.

Thanks for the advice. I'll try to get my hands on those. I got their yeast really cheap. A whole pound of it for $2.6 or so.

Not sure if you have a Food Lion, but I used to buy their brand of flakes and they worked fine.

Hmm, my first package was Kroger and it worked really well. I can get it easily but I'm sure WinCo is cheaper.
