Grow-Box
1 Product description
Grow-Box is an insect container developed as a pilot concept for large-scale insect farming facilities with a
focus on the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens). It is thus intended for breeding and growth of larvae and
pupae, but can be adapted to most types of insect farming systems, e.g. for mealworms.
