Symton sells black soldier fly larvae and little else, which is the point. The larvae ship live in cups, sized from small to large, and are used as a staple by keepers who want a feeder with a naturally high calcium level and no dusting routine. They need no gut loading, they will not escape a smooth sided dish quickly, and they keep for weeks in a cool room without feeding, which suits people who travel.
Handy for bearded dragons, leopard geckos and small monitors, and for anyone whose animals are heading toward metabolic bone disease from a plain cricket diet. Some reptiles refuse them at first because the larvae move slowly, and a few keepers find them too soft. Kept warm they pupate into flies faster than expected, so the fridge shelf or a cool cupboard matters.
