Why Insect Nets for BSF Farming in Kenya?
Insect Nets are smart fabrics made of knitted and woven plastic which keeps insects from BSF production structures.
It has small pores that allow air for respiration and at the same time make the environment conducive. Small-hole knitting makes them a good choice for avoiding the entry of predator birds and other animals that may interfere with BSF larvae.
Insect nets are strong and survive wind force, any mechanical tension, and tear or wear. Their design enhances stretching thus free from possible tears or damage.
Suitable Net Structures

Covering the structure keeps the insects in the structure and prevents them from escaping. It also allows sunlight into the structure to allow health and mating of the insects.
Benefit of Insect Nets in BSF Farming
Applying insect nets in the production of BSF larvae enhances a better production rate.
Insect nets make the BSF insects available inside the structures for mating thus ensuring the larvae grow.
Using insect nets enhances cooling thus preventing diseases and the entry of bacteria which can damage the larvae.
Nets keep wasps and other predators away from the BSF larvae.
