Abstract
. Hermetia illucens L. (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) called black soldier fly(BSF) has an important role in the degradation of organic waste or bioconversion activity. The current study compared some types of feeds to preference BSF to eggs laid and the implication of of the number of larvae and the size of the pupae produced , the percentage of larvae that became adults. Type of feeds is rice bran, mixture of fruits waste, agricultural waste, vegetable waste and household waste. The types of feeds mixed with goat manure.The study reports that Black Soldier Fly (BSF) produced the highest number of egg colonies in household waste (6 colonies) then vegetable waste (5 colonies), bran (4.3 colonies), fruit waste (3.3 colonies) and the lowest on agricultural waste (0.3 colonies). The highest number of larvae was in bran (4783), then household waste (1942), vegetable waste (1511), fruits waste (983) and the lowest in agricultural waste (92 ). The longest pupa size is in fruits waste (2 cm), household waste (1.96 cm), vegetable waste and the lowest is in agricultural waste(0.48 cm). The highest number of imago was in bran (1606 heads), vegetables waste (211 heads), fruits waste (137 heads), restaurant waste (93 heads) and the lowest was in agricultural waste (10 heads).
