“I recently purchased the Cricket Breeding Manual’ which is based on his many years of experience in insect farming. It’s very informative as it brings together a lot of very useful practices in a level of details difficult to find elsewhere. This manual provides an excellent roadmap to someone looking to get into insect farming on a small scale, as well as good tips and practices to someone looking to expand their hobby into an income generating activity. Well done!

Want to Learn Commercial Methods…We Are One of the Few Insect Breeders who Will Show you How

There is a large learning curve breeding Crickets and other insects which can end in disaster if you don’t have the right information. We’ll teach you how to: estimate how many insects you can produce, potential markets, things to consider, avoiding potential mistakes and Lots more. Have a look at some of our articles above for further details.

For example, did you know that new solar technology has the potential to greatly reduce or remove one of the biggest expenses (heating- day and night, even in cool climates) and you can get around 4 times more profit from breeding for human consumption ?

14 Years of Sweat and Tears…Or Access the Best Information Instantly?

Not many people realize it initially, but breeding insects is a “school of hard knocks” industry. Those who do well, learn from their mistakes quickly and learn from others who have spent years trialing different things. We have made many mistakes over the years and toiled using high maintenance techniques. Then we learnt how to do it much quicker and with less effort. After 14 years you learn a few shortcuts and learn how to:

  • Build the right containers that are durable and have the right balance between ventilation, removing toxic gas in summer, heat retention and preventing pest entry.
  • Build durable, stable and reliable food and water dispensers that are automated to minimize maintenance and reduce cannibalism
  • Manage vinegar flies and other pests which nearly destroyed our business
  • Sort, pack and distribute to customers.
  • Create consistency through standardizing of feeding, maintenance and management.
  • Be efficient with your time and how to reduce or eliminate costs (e.g. solar heating, reduced maintenance, efficient design).
