    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Well, honestly. The easiest way, that Ive found, personally, is to buy a very large strainer.. one that fits on top of a 5 gal bucket, and slowly pour the bins into the sifter and sift as needed. This helps get rid of alot of the fully processed substrate, while also seperating the larger worms/beetles. Once you get one bin sifted one time through, put the ones in the sifter somewhere, then do that bin again.. You will find tons of small ones that you didnt see before. Hopefully that will help. Thats what I do w/ all of my mealworm colonies! :)
