Hiding from all you crazy people!!!
I have a hard time believing that any critter eating dead chit doesn't stink...
Regardless, I don't want to mess with it myself. Much rather pay someone that enjoys that kind of stuff, I really don't.
Skulls Unlimited prob does use beetles, but still in OKC almost 2 hours away. Tulsa is 45min and Stillwater is 20min. Surely someone is closer than OKC.

You eat dead chit, do you stink???
Like I said, the meat has to be good not rotting. And they eat of very fast.
I understand you not wanting to do it, I was just tossing the option out there.

If you throw 10 pounds of meat into 500 beetles, its gonna stink.

If you throw in the amount of food that 500 beetles will eat, it will not stink.

Its a short learning curve for beetle owners.

In theory, this makes unquestionable sense. But no, I'm still not going to try it. I can look at a picture and swear I can smell rot and decay.

Without a toilet, locked in an unventilated box, YES I would most definitely stink. I can't keep a straight face and say my chit don't stink. Don't think the beetles can either.
