The Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens) is an insect that all gardeners should become familiar with. After my encounter with it, I did much research and I am happy to share the information that I've found with my fellow gardeners.
Name: Sally central Maryland (Zone 7b) See you in the funny papers!
Now that I have chickens, I will be trying to produce plenty of BSF for them.
Once I found them in a bucket of coffee grounds, I seem to have them every year once it warms up, in the kitchen waste. They don't like leaves and green yard waste.
