colony of Dermestidae

in with my roaches I found these ...


I think they are these:

very similar to these ( without the spots )

they were growing too many in number so I separated them..

that wasn't fun..

But now I have a colony of them.. very healthy.. several hundred.

anyone interested in them?

I had a colony of them. Well, the black ones. I used them to clean skulls and other animal bones for ppl.
Sadly, during the winter, someone unpluged the heat lamp and they all died!!

I think i have a few of those lil guys in with my hissers.... and if you seperated out a bunch of those from your roaches...... you have FAR more patience then i my friend.... far more.....

that must have been a nightmare.
