The product

BSF Neonates

Hermetia illucens

Our neonates come from genetically selected Hermetia illucens colonies for performance, growth speed and resistance. Each batch is produced under controlled conditions and undergoes strict quality controls before shipping.

90%+ Hatching rate
95%+ Survival rate
Fast Growth rate
High Genetic consistency
Genetically selected strain Our colonies have been selected over generations for growth speed, feed conversion rate and disease resistance.

Advantages

Benefits of our neonates

High hatching rate

Over 90% consistent hatching rate in every batch. Less waste, more efficiency and predictable results from the very first production cycle.

Applications

BSF neonate usage sectors

BSF neonates are the starting point for multiple types of insect farming operations.

BSF farm for organic waste treatment

Waste treatment farms

BSF larvae transform organic waste into valuable biomass. Our neonates guarantee a productive and efficient colony for waste valorization operations.

BSF insect protein production

Animal protein production

Start or scale your insect meal and oil production with high-performance neonates. Maximize substrate-to-biomass conversion for commercial value.

BSF organic frass production

Frass production

The by-product of BSF farming is a high-value organic fertilizer. Our neonates optimize both biomass production and the quality of the resulting frass.

Circular BSF integration with poultry and laying hens

Circular poultry farming

360 integration: organic waste from your laying hens feeds the larvae, and the larvae become protein for the hens. A closed loop that reduces feed costs and waste management.

Environmental impact

BSF farming benefits the planet

Every BSF farm that starts operations with our neonates contributes to a more sustainable future.

1:5 Conversion ratio

BSF larvae convert 5 kg of organic waste into 1 kg of biomass. An unmatched conversion efficiency in the animal kingdom.

-50% Waste reduction

BSF farms divert organic waste from landfills, reducing methane emissions and generating high-value products.

10x Less land than soy

Insect protein production requires a fraction of the land needed to produce the same amount of plant protein.

Insectius insect farm - sustainable BSF neonate production

Driving the circular bioeconomy

Every batch of neonates that leaves our facilities is the beginning of a virtuous cycle: organic waste transformed into protein, fat and high-value fertilizer.

BSF farming is one of the most promising solutions for the global protein crisis and sustainable waste management. Our neonates are the seed of that change.

The context

Why is insect farming essential?

1.3B tons of food are wasted worldwide every year
+50% increase in global animal protein demand by 2050
14.5% of greenhouse gas emissions come from livestock

The world faces a dual challenge: growing demand for animal protein and an unsustainable accumulation of organic waste. Conventional livestock farming cannot scale without devastating consequences for the planet.

Insects, particularly Hermetia illucens, offer an elegant solution to both problems: they convert organic waste into high-quality protein with a fraction of the resources needed by conventional livestock.

The solution is not in producing more. It is in better transforming what we already have.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about BSF neonates

BSF eggs should be stored in a cool, dark place with high humidity (70-80%) and temperatures between 25-30°C (77-86°F). It is recommended to use them as soon as possible after reception to maximize the hatching rate.

Under optimal conditions, BSF eggs typically hatch in 3-4 days. Temperature and humidity of the environment are critical factors affecting hatching time.

Yes, our neonates are ready to be used immediately after arrival. Place them in your prepared substrate right away to maximize survival and growth.

The amount depends on your production goals and farm size. We work with batches from 100g for pilot farms. Our technical team can help you size your order according to your project and processing capacity.

Yes, we provide comprehensive guidance and support for both new and experienced BSF farmers. This includes technical documentation, best handling practices and personalized advice to optimize your operation.

We guarantee a hatching rate above 90% under optimal storage and handling conditions. Each batch undergoes quality controls before shipping to ensure this standard.

Yes, we ship throughout Europe with specialized logistics for live biological material. Neonates are shipped under controlled temperature and humidity conditions to guarantee their viability upon arrival.

We offer batches starting from 100g for pilot farms and research projects. For industrial operations, we work with continuous supply contracts in kilograms. Contact our sales team at hello@insectius.com or +34 628 288 809 for specific conditions.
