Why is Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) Loaded with Nutrients?
Black soldier fly have enormous appetites and rapidly convert food waste into castings. This means they break down the tough fibers of plant material while releasing the bound nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium locked within. While they consume a large portion of these nutrients as they grow, they also excrete an equal amount into the frass they produce.
Frass’ is a term used to describe the casting (poop) and exoskeletons left behind after insect larvae are removed from a compost pile and is loaded with nutrients.
