i think it would be easier to sterilize with heat than all of the work transporting and waiting for flies to eat the organic material

that would probably cost more at the end of the day than just letting nature take it’s course

Also, there are so many other life cycles supported by the current method. Larger animals need bugs to eat and on up the food chain. Heat disrupts the cycle.
