where can you get maggots
« on: Nov 27, 2018, 08:31 PM »
None of the stores in Bozo has them --- yet.   Another week or two.....maybe.  Anybody bought any yet this year?  Would like to head to Gtown.  Willing to pick some up along the way.  Thanks.

My dad and I go together and buy 5000 at a time from Ja-Da baits online.  They got to me in less than a week and were (as always) in great shape.  They last at least until spring/early summer if properly stored.

Just bough a thousand off e-bay and with a little care will get  through most of the winter. Way better quality than any out of the stores.

Gills is correct.  I would add to expose them to air and temp changes as little as possible, these cause the larva to pupate.

Also keep all air out of the plastic bag they come in, air is not good. I used to take the few dead ones out every couple week. They will keep till spring in most cases
