I figured out what I was describing to you. They are not BSF larvae. What I am seeing are only 1-to-2 mm in length so they don't match the description. However, they do match the description of fruit fly eggs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Worms_and_fruit_fly_eggs.jpg Now, that said... I took a look at the bottom of the bin today and I saw for the first time many larvae that did match the description of the BSF larvae. It looks like they are helping the worms out and I have a bit of a fruit fly issue that I may have to deal with. Hey Steve.
