Tenebrio molitor, commonly known as yellow mealworms, has a broad diet and can thrive on various agricultural by-products, livestock manure, and even waste from the brewing industry. These materials can be processed using tools like the Ginba Fermenter to turn them into high-quality feed. One such material is wine lees, which is abundant in many regions. But when using it, there are several important factors to consider.
The key concern is the presence of rosin and other organic compounds found in wine lees. These substances can make the material highly acidic, with a low pH. To ensure proper fermentation and digestion by the mealworms, it's essential to adjust the pH level to around 7–8 using lime before feeding. This is similar to the ideal pH range for goldfish fermentation, which also works best at around 8.
Additionally, when selecting raw materials, avoid those that already have a strong, unpleasant odor, as they may contain harmful bacteria or toxins. If you're using straw or plant-based materials, make sure to crush them first to improve digestibility. Mixing multiple types of feed can help create a more balanced and nutritious diet for the mealworms.
When introducing new feed, start with small amounts and gradually increase the proportion over time. Never replace the existing feed abruptly, as this could cause digestive issues or stress to the mealworms. Always monitor their behavior and health closely during the transition.
