Can't find Reptiworms in Canada!

[finnie]

Hi all. I can't seem to find reptiworms in Canada (Ontario). Can anyone tell me if there is another name for them, or are they just something that we just don't seem to have here? I've found places that sell wax, silk, horn, super, and millworms, but nothing even remotely close to repti-worms. From all the info I've found here, I'd say the consensus is that repti's are the best if I'd like to move away from crickets. If you have any info you can share with me - I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

Hey, you might try contacting the guy who started this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=18&t=153052&p=1225327&hilit=exclusive%20rights%20to%20sell%20the%20Prota%20Biopod#p1225327

'hicksorganics' - he mentions something about owning 'exclusive rights' in breeding Prota Biopod (Reptiworms)

Apparently I was wrong

"Prota Biopod is a method of composting, and can be used as a food source for growing black soldier fly larvae (which are repitworms, calciworms, and phoenix worms), scientific name Hermetia illucens."

Thanks randommonks for correcting me :lol:

Anyway, I think he was looking to breed them or something, regardless try contacting him
