Larva (Maggot) Stage:

The most crucial phase of the black soldier fly life cycle for converting organic waste into valuable resources such as frass fertilizer and insect protein.

Black Soldier Fly Pupa Zihanga

Pupa Stage:

A transitional stage during which the larval transforms into the adult fly. The pupa appears dark brown or black and resembles a small, elongated capsule.

Black Soldier Fliy Adult Zihanga

They have a short lifespan of about 5-8 days and do not feed during this stage. Instead, their primary focus is to mate and lay eggs for the next generation.
