question about roach colony...

I am looking to start a roach colony as a means to compost food waste, and i was wondering to what extent dubia roaches will be able to do that job...

I found a nice article about a guy who uses red runners, and he says they will eat literally anything, including meat and dairy, and they produce amazing fertilizer in the process.

so i was wondering if dubia roaches are at all capable of the same thing, being as they are not an invasive species i think i would prefer to have them.


i raise quail and some chickens(and am thinking about getting some reptiles again!) so they will be used for feed, composting, and fertilizer production.

If anyone has any information on this subject please help me out!
Thanks in advance!
