Watch How To Make A DIY Soldier Fly Larvae Composting Bin in New Channel | Channify

I've been using a rudimentary 2-bin black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) composter for the last few years. However, it doesn't have a mechanism to capture the larvae as they leave the compost as they prepare to pupate. In this video, I build the DIY soldier fly larvae composter that has been rolling around the brain for a while now. This is a long video, but a get into a pretty detailed step-by-step DIY process. This new design has a ramped shape to allow the larvae to self-harvest, saving time and removing larvae from the composter only when they are done composting and ready to pupate, and then become adults.
