    You could have tried to keep them like some people keep dubia cocktoaches. Put them in a big tote for the numbers and pull them out on an egg crate. Shakr them into a container to then feed...

    Look up water bottles with screw in sections for infusing fruit/vegetables. I bet something like that would work perfectly

    Put your beans in a net and glue the net to the bottom of whatever... you're welcome..

    Sounds like a protein shaker cup is something that would get the job done

      Howdy Christian,
      Thanks for the tip! I had no idea what that was, so I just googled them. They may indeed be just the thing. I'll take a look at some and see how big the screen is.

    With all your videos on the myriad of live food choices you show us on them is great. Kinda the good the bad and the not so good. keep up the advice much appreciated, especially on the rice crispies vid, brilliant tip. Cheers :)

    • @DansFish

      Just curious...Are rice crispies available in the UK?

    • @hilblue6224

      Oh yes, ha,ha I thought we invented them! Another note have you had a look at the wide necked water bottles that have a central container within to put sliced fruit in, to flavour your water. I am not totally certain if grate wide enough or not, you would have to have a look yourself? In Uk you can get them from our bargain shops for a pound or a very expensive one as well from sport shop. Just a thought. :)

    You may use the salt bottle kind that have another top but beans would becomes dust, not sure all those dust waste may contained eggs that about to hatch. I can imagine they all over my house. 😱 I have too much imagination lol. I will pass this thank you for video.

      I ended up getting rid of the bean beetles. Not a bad food, but not as good an fruit flies.

    What about using the backing for needlepoint people use in breeding tanks. Could be easily attached to a length of PVC which would replace the paper tube.

    • @DansFish
      @DansFish  6 років тому

      Howdy Litha,
      Thanks for sharing your idea. I thought about using needlepoint backing as well. The issue is that the holes in it are too small to shake the beetles through easily.

    What about the larva how hard are they to harvest?

    • @DansFish

      Howdy Thomas,
      Good question! I should have talked about that in the vid. The life cycle of the bean beetle is that the adults lay eggs on the beans. The eggs hatch, and the larvae immediately burrow into the bean. They stay inside the bean and don't emerge until they have become full adults. Unfortunately, the only way to get at the larvae would be to break them out of the beans.
      Best,
      Dan
