Maggots


So aquaponics is catching on! There are 3 of us at Caloundra DEM who are into it, Emma gave me some of her black soldier fly larvae (maggots). He family generate a few kilos of them per day (?) and freeze them and feed them to the fish.

They go nuts on the household waste and chow through it all in a short amount of time, seems like a solid way of getting rid of household green waste and turning it via only a few short steps into quality food. Sensational example of a closed loop system to me, really excited about it! Just dont tell the missus... ;)
