dermestid beetle colonies for sale
« on: October 21, 2015, 05:10:02 PM »
I have 2 large colonies of dermestid beetles for sale. These are not starter boxes. Will clean a large bear or deer in 3 to 5 days. I want to sell the entire colony  in a large ventilated container. I prefer  to sell in this manner so buyer will get all pupating larvae and the thousands of very small  small larvae that are hard to collect.

Asking $500 but will discount $50 if you pick it up- live in Clarkston, WA..  I am including  the new book on care and feeding of Dermestids free.. This is an added value of $27.99.  If interested send me a message or call 509-751-0410 ...between 7:00 and 3:00

Thanks
Judy

I am sorry, I have not done a head count. This is a big colony that is as I said capable of doing a good size deer or large bear in just a few days. I do not plan on counting these out at this time. I do however, plan on adding a nice size mule deer in the next day or so...  I plan on photographing  the process by the day.

If I do need to trap and count then I will sell that amount not the box. 
Thanks for asking.

How long do you suppose it would take those little critters to go through a human body, say 190lbs?

I'm asking for a friend.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
