I made one just like this, but I added a garden hose inlet at the top of the barrel and a tap at the bottom, after a while fill up with water open the tap over a drain and let it flush through
Honestly, I enjoy everything about Fish. it's a very enlightening information about producing maggots for fish bait. Thanks for very much for this video, I really enjoy watching it in full, you have an excellent channel. Best regards/Ned 🎅🤝🤶
nice idea... best Ive found so far. Im thinking of a way I could use aluminium mesh to roll up into a cylinder and just attach that both sides to the swimming pool hose. the fluid would drip down easy and maggots would find their way to the exits easily. but how would the flies get in though....
Hello i have a question i tried to build my own bsf bin however the maggots that I'm seeing are jumping and there's a lot of house fly in it. So I was just wondering if the larva that I'm seeing are the bsf not the house fly.
I made one without that big ass blue barrel and used that shitty style of hose and it is a pain to clean out. The hay will clog up the hose and you spend more time than needed. I will be making another one without the holes in the bottom and the mesh. The maggots will wiggle through the mesh as they do with a sifter I use to separate them from the flour. I will use a solid hose and it will not come out at the very top as they is more work the maggots have to do to get out. My hose will come out halfway up the bucket into a black container as they do not like light. I will say I like the plastic bottle on top, it’ll help keep the flys in, I used a piece of wire mesh and it did okay.
last year my maggot farm worked great . this year all the maggots die . its now a second time bucket is full of dead maggots. is there a disease that can kill all the maggots or is it just heat
Doubt it would be heat, ones used for fishing bait will sit in a fridge for upto a few days and then go out in bright sunshine and back into the fridge just fine Is it possible someone tampered with your farm and sabotaged you? Happened to me twice, found out after putting a camera up my neighbour was pouring all manner of nasty things in at night, he is one of these that moved into a country house on the edge of a village.... then preceeded to rip every plant, tree and blade of grass up and concreted the lot, complained about my animals so i had to re home them before he did something to them too 😭 (ducks and chickens that had been here for years at that point) a lovely chap he is If not hope you got it sorted or at the least wasnt put off the project totally
I made this factory as shown. My problem is that I get no maggots crawling up the tube and into the outside jar. I fill the inside with road kill squirrels and they get loaded with flys and very small maggots. None mature and never climb up and fall into the jar. What did I do wrong? Please help.
They are also still used in medicine too, but yeah most of these vids are to show people how to breed them for animal food or fish bait, both of which ultimately lead to quite a good harvest haul if you put the work in (and if the seasons are good to you that year) and can save quite a bit of money used as animal feed bulk over the course of a year They are also one of those critters that you will always be expanding your operation for like worm farms, they only get bigger year on year if done right and they eat your waste cooked and raw so whatever you cant or dont compost doesnt have to go in the bin I think a lot of people out there unfortunately forget just how important things like maggots, worms and such are for us
+ mark durrant I say old boy one actually enjoys this commoners verbal utterings, makes one realise how lucky one was to have had a private education which puts one in a very privileged position. If I ever take up (I very much doubt it) this crude form of angling I would probably purchase a commercial maggot farm to add to my dairy and arable farms. By the way mark durrant are you related to the durrants of Belgravia?
Next time please just don't talk. Submit a script to the internet and have people proof-read it for you for free. Then just copy/paste their words onto the screen. Please. Listening to you talk was seriously traumatizing. You also could have made a shorter video and been more direct with your instructions. Just wow.
Hearing different accents and seeing different landscapes on these TH-cam videos is one of the added joys to learning how to do something. Do you really want a bland world where everyone is exactly the same?
I loved this. It also gives me something to do with the 15 shop vacuums laying around my property that do not work. Thanks man. Rick Green out...
Great stuff man. Thanks! and give that toddler in the background a hug.

Fantastic video and explanations
Thanks for the information.
nice video, thanks for the upload

Good, practical job no bs 👍
Great idea. How long does it take for the blue container to fill to the bottum of the yellow one?
Wow! Thanks for sharing.
Fine instructions, love the accent. Do you have a follow up video with the container in action and crawling with maggots?
London I think but he has a little bit of a Bristol accent
BSF DO NOT LAY THEIR EGGS ON THE FOOD SOURCE...
Genuis mate gonna give it a try for the fishing, how do proper fishing maggots look so smooth, ones you grow look nasty
Brilliant!
Smart dude..
Nice video
Obrigado amigo! Rio de Janeiro te manda um 👌
did it work?
I think this is for soldier fly maggots not the normal fly maggots, should of specified it the topic.

I use to live near a maggot farm in the 90s and on a summers day driving past HOLY MOLY 🤭😆 stunk of rotting flesh and ammonia
How did your maggot farm go +Ten Pound? Was it worth it?
excellent
Good
Wouldn’t you want to hang the tower/tune up high so they keep climbing upward
How do the flies get into top bottle?.
Is it cut open to let them in?
Vary nice
Brilliant
hm... do you have any videos on how to seal? lol
My stomach :
"Mr human, I don't feel so good"

What size was the blue container? Thanks
freakin genius
Maggots: this is too easy! I wonder what the catch is...
*later
Man: now I can catch fish
maggots:
How many kilos of produce can it get from 10 kg of vegetables?
How does the chicken taste?
Why do you need the bottle on top. ??

It's a pity that you didn't show it when it actually works. Anyone tried this system?
How do u harvest the maggot when it is time of harvesting and what can u pour inside the bucket to attract flies? Pls clear me thank u
Well you put food in the bucket to attract them meat chicken or fish and to get the maggots you just tip the big clear bottle up and pour them out
I made this factory as shown. My problem is that I get no maggots crawling up the tube and into the outside jar. I fill the inside with road kill squirrels and they get loaded with flys and very small maggots. None mature and never climb up and fall into the jar. What did I do wrong? Please help.
They are not bsf maggots
Why would the maggots climb the tube? Doesn’t make sense
You sound like Adele
4.56. what is being added ?
I love this guys accent
I bet your mesh was from an old trampoline.....
Great video very detailed
i use maize flour/meal
This should be patented and put on ebay :)
nice won bro, gonna make me sum oh dem maggots init
BSF is more sustainable than maggots and less smell too.
Can you help me
Some.bugs come and eat maggots and fly eggs
Show us the maggots!!
Why was this on my recommended?
Cant u just modify a housebin to catch them all then u dont have to fumble through trash
this is fine and all, but damn, I mean a bucket with some holes drilled in suffices just fine.
Please tell me what do you collect them for...
Most people use it for chicken and fish food.
They are also still used in medicine too, but yeah most of these vids are to show people how to breed them for animal food or fish bait, both of which ultimately lead to quite a good harvest haul if you put the work in (and if the seasons are good to you that year) and can save quite a bit of money used as animal feed bulk over the course of a year
They are also one of those critters that you will always be expanding your operation for like worm farms, they only get bigger year on year if done right and they eat your waste cooked and raw so whatever you cant or dont compost doesnt have to go in the bin
I think a lot of people out there unfortunately forget just how important things like maggots, worms and such are for us
I am starting to like Maggots@.. STOP ME PLEASE
Macdonald's food.
why maggot goes up to the top?
After 5 days after hatching, the maggots needs to find a dry, dark locations for pupal development so they can become flies.
Laborious and unnecessary pipes and additional bottle is not reqired.
Please, How the maggot come colored?
RÉPONDRE
Maggots which are coloured have been done so through artificial dyes such as food colouring hope this clears things up.
Dye the meat with rid fabric dye
Wish we could see this working
People make these
Coolll
No need for the blue container
Thats what i was thinking also..
name your price for one of those.
$60 I'll mass produce em
What a long winded effort does comfort bottle only let certain flies what scent do you use for green bottles😋🤪🤪🤪🤪
Too much work. I’ll use a tray a riddle and a dead fish. Thanks though.
Is it haveing 🙊bad smell
what a mess is this
that looks like a lot of work there are more simple ways to do it
2 buckets, 2 bottles, mesh, rocks, hose, zip tie and some cuts=too much work huh. 🤫🤫🤫
Fool idea 💡
+ mark durrant I say old boy one actually enjoys this commoners verbal utterings, makes one realise how lucky one was to have had a private education which puts one in a very privileged position.

Or just buy a pint of maggots for £2 from a Fishing tackle shop lol 😂
Cheep skate 😂👍🏻

Nico Burgio yo must be an ignorant racist. he has an accent

Typical opinionated hater....If you don't like the video stop watching...
It wasn't meant for you...Nico
If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen
