[QUOTE="CosbyArt, post: 277976, member: 8168"] Many thanks Jay. After lots of near endless searches the last few days and signing up to several scientific websites I have found many great articles. I'd share links but most are not viewable by non-members and other tricks. If interested let me know and I can send you a zip of the PDF articles directly. ;) The articles range from rearing the houseflies on dog biscuits, using nothing more than cottonballs soaked in milk, to a mix of bran and oats then a tiny piece of beef liver is added for a few hours to make the flies lay eggs. The majority concentrate on low to no odor setups (while some do use manure and such), and cover the field of building suitable housing for flies of all stages and proper care. I have ordered several housefly pupae and hope to do a few setups indoors to see which, if any, work. Of course if I figure anything out I'll be sure to share it here on the forum. [/QUOTE]
