20 LIVE MILLIPEDES Bumblebee Anadenobolus Monilicornis / Scarlet Trigoniulus

Description: This item is a colony starter mix of 2 Millipedes species. Bumblebee (Anadenobolus Monilicornis), Scarlet (Trigoniulus Corralinus) Millipedes are underrated in composting cultureScientists from Mangalore University, Alagappa University and the Madurai Kamaraj University has shown that he quality of millicompost is superior to that of vermicompost.The nitrogen and phosphorus content is higher in millicompost than vermicompost. Additionally, millicompost brings down the pH of the soil thus promoting fungi dominated soil environment. Other advantages of millipede compostMillipedes can consume wastes 5 times their body weight.Millipedes are able to lock away the nutrients in their fecal matter and then release them periodically.As research showed millipedes have truly unprecedented microorganism diversity in their gut that will charge your compost pile with bunch of beneficial fungi and bacteria. The millipedes are shipped in a medium that includes adult and baby millipedes and their natural habitat consisting of castings, peat moss and all the symbiotic organisms that help the millipedes settle in your new environment. When you receive the package you should have already a bin with medium prepared for them. I mainly use coco coir and peat moss however it can be shredded paper, shredded cardboard, cheap top soil or cow manure from Home depot. I recommend to take the whole content of the bag and placing it as is in your bin/compost pile. After getting used to their newly found home they will not escape your bin/compost pile, they normally stay where the food is. You can feed your millipedes pretty much anything that comes from your kitchen table.Order processTo ensure survival of the species any order placed after Thursday will be shipped the next Monday.I will send the package using USPS mail.

If that happens or there is a problem with the batch let me know and I will send you another batch, simply help with the cost of shipping.The mix will have 20 millipedes
