Title: dermestid beetle colonies for sale
Post by: JAFL 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 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.

I'm asking for a friend.
