Ever found yourself staring into your morning protein shake, wondering if there might be a more sustainable way to get your daily nutrients? Well, hold onto your breakfast spoons, because the humble Black Soldier Fly larvae might just be crawling their way onto your plate—and for good reason!

Unlike their annoying housefly cousins that buzz around your banana bread, these remarkable creatures are nature's recycling champions and nutritional powerhouses rolled into one small, wriggly package.

Recent research has explored the potential of Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL), Hermetia illucens, in the context of plastic degradation. These larvae are known for their ability to efficiently convert various organic wastes into biomass, and studies are investigating whether this capability extends to plastics.

Let's be honest, as much as we adore our furry companions, dealing with their, ahem, output isn't exactly the highlight of pet ownership. For years, the go to solution has been the trusty plastic bag, whisking the offending pile away to the mysterious land of the landfill.
