Mrs Womble was quite tolerant of me growing fungi in a bucket of manure beside our bed (the only place in the house that was warm enough), but even she might draw the line at cockroaches!  :)

If you put them in a smoothly with some honey I bet it would be enjoyable?

Im now looking at traps and instead of breading my own insects just trapping natural ones.

I love to put them in a smoothy with some raw honey.

There are some brilliant new electron traps on the market, you end up with large amount of fresh bugs.

Are there any bugs in the UK we should not be eating? I dont think there are, not in this country.

Wow those Dubai beetles are pretty big, they might be interesting to raise. I only raise the mealworms right now.
