Tips for Increasing Yield in Maggot Farming

(1) Increasing the egg production of flies: The conditions for increasing fly egg production are: 1. Ensure a large number of sterile breeding flies, maintaining more than 200,000 flies in a maggot house of about 100 square meters; 2. Feed a new formula that promotes fly egg-laying; 3. Use a new formula for the egg-collecting information material.

(2) The breeding flies used for farming must be the “engineered fly” or “red-headed fly” that has undergone long-term special domestication. After tremendous effort and special domestication, we finally succeeded! The differences between domesticated houseflies and wild flies: 1. Not afraid of people: if you bring your finger to within 1 cun of it, it will not fly away; 2. Good settling behavior, not prone to escaping; 3. Large egg production, likes to live in groups; 4. Sterile, with a particularly regular daily routine of eating, mating and laying eggs (the domestication process will be explained to you in detail during training).

(3) For the formula of the egg-collecting information material, previously only wheat bran plus ammonia water was used, but practice has proven this to be less than ideal. Through extensive practice, we have summarized several formulas that use readily available, cheap yet particularly effective raw materials. Come to the site and you can see: when we place the egg-collecting material on the manure, in less than a minute the flies will rush to gather on it and lay eggs; that scene will surely astonish you.

(4) Preparation and formula of the maggot-rearing base material: The method differs greatly from general techniques. Taking fermentation technology as an example, one of the methods we use is the “water fermentation technology” that you may never have heard of. This technique is simple to operate and can effectively remove the odor from the manure. In addition, you must think that the maggot house uses only manure and therefore must stink so much that people dare not enter, but the fact is that there is no odor inside, or only a tiny bit of odor (in winter when it is cold and the windows need to be closed for warmth, a little smell inside is normal; in summer when all the windows are open, basically no odor can be smelled inside, and all the manure used for raising flies and maggots is treated with microbial bacteria for sterilization, deodorization and decomposition).
