Attempting to rear my own feeder flies 🪰 this year because most of the pupae I ordered online last year arrived dead due to the Texas heat ☀️ and flies are THE BEST feeders for mantises! Starting small and using the Gainesville medium recipe to make sure it works, so WISH ME LUCK!!! 🍀
Also, PLEASE spread the word about my mantises so they can find homes or jobs in a garden!! I already have over 400… 🥹💀

This is a fun take on a small part as my job as a medical entomologist! 🦟🩸
I study mosquitoes so we can understand pathogens transmssion better and find sustainable ways to control mosquito populations and diseases transmission!
Female mosquitoes need blood to produce their eggs, so some of our colonies are fed by volunteering staff. This is relatively common approach in some mosquito labs and is approved by human ethics committees.
We also feed mosquitoes through menbranes where feeding them on volunteers is not possible or where we need to use animal blood for experiments. Follow the linked reel to learn about to pros and cons of that approach.
