What about...

I saw your post, and the first thing that came to mind (on the super-cheap side): What about picking up a couple of "portions" of Mealworms at your local pet shop? They eat everything & I believe they turn into a type of dermestid beetle. I thought I read somewhere that they are considered a type of Darkling Beetle?

so red wigglers are the ones at a bait shop right?
