The Mealworm Company LIVEFOODS DIRECT Large Fruit Flies Culture, reptile and bird food Flightless

These flies are a real bargain. I advise you buy them a week before you ate going to need a new batch. You then simply place them somewhere with a constant room temperature and they hatch within a few days. They live a good few weeks as long as you keep them correctly. If like me you require a high number of these, you will find this culture really useful and good quality.

Quickly delivered and a healthy sized culture.

Flies all died. This was a waste of money - I can only think that the cotton wool that came with the culture let no air in and it’s killed all the flies. Wouldn’t buy from again. Very poor quality - don’t have other fly cultures for like this

Generally good quality, bought several times for dart frogs. Only problem was one of the last two I ordered were not flightless! I can now recommend good fruit fly traps available on Amazon lol

Have been ordering these for a while. Arrives fast. Any issues I've had, have been rectified immediately. A good amount of flies in the pot too.

Amazing food for baby mantis, keep them fed for a few weeks. Down side was the packaging as alot had escaped out the top. It's a big hole in the lid stuffed with a cotton wall ball which had dislodged. Could benefit from some bug mesh under the lid which I installed, as you can see in the photo. Would of been 5stars if it wasn't for the package issue but I'm sure I was unlucky.

This fruit fly culture started hatching within about 4-5 days of receiving it. and once they started they lasted me about 3 weeks. But I didn’t do anything to keep them going for longer. I bought them for a jumping spider but soon realised that these were a little to small for her so moved her onto Green bottles flies instead and I just let this culture die off. But I’m sure if you tried to keep it going or cultured l more fruit flies from it you absolutely could. The only problem I found with it is the cotton wool ball they used to stuff in the hole in the top. After a couple of times of removing and putting back this just kind of starts to get misshapen and fall apart because the the cotton keeps catching on edge of the hole. If I had cotton wool balls here I could have just used a new one each time but I didn’t so a sponge bung would have been a much better choice here.

Just received my order of fruit flies for my jumping spider and wow I will have one very happy spood
