Abstract:
Objective To observe the change of housefly (Musca domestica) breeding in the pig manure treated ecologically with its larvae. Methods The number of eggs and the hatching rate of larvae in the treated manure were compared with that in the untreated manure. Results The number of eggs laid in the treated manure accounted for only 17^7% of the total eggs, while those in the untreated manure accounted for 82^3%. The hatching rate in the treated manure was 41^4%, but 85^1% in the untreated manure. Conclusion There is a significant reduction of eggs laid and of their hatching rate in the pig manure treated ecologically by housefly larvae.
