Flake Soil – Premium Beetle Substrate

Each bag contains approximately 1.2 gallons of flake soil. The level of fermentation affects which beetle larvae thrive best:

  • Stag beetle larvae prefer less fermented flake soil.
  • Rhino and flower beetle larvae do best in more fermented, decayed flake soil.
  • Goliath beetle larvae can start on flake soil but need additional protein, such as koi pellets, as they grow.

Feel free to contact us for more information on specific beetle species' needs!
