Re: maggot-cide



Hi Kate and Sanet:

A website with a good listing of sources of nematodes and other beneficial
organisms is:
Suppliers of Beneficial Organisms in North America
http://www.cdpr.ca.gov/docs/dprdocs/goodbug/benefic.htm

There are listings for parasitic wasps that attack houseflies, too, but they
are probably more appropriate for use for long-term control in barns with a
continuing supply of manure than in a compost pile.
