Does anyone know how to start an earworm colony? In my old house, I used to catch them and give them to colonies, which always seemed to love them. Today I live by a golf course, so I am concerned about pesticides getting into any insects from outside. That's why I want to start a colony of earwigs as feeder insects. Does anyone have any experience with this?
