When my daughter was still at home I bought her a Gecko. Which means I also had to buy crickets...lots of them. And boy do they poo! I never thought of using it for anything-just wanted to keep their little bin clean and smell free. All that free fertilizer got tossed out. Darn.

All poo is good for plants. Most of it just needs to sit around for a while, get picked over by bugs and birds, then get hit by weather and gradually break down into into the soil, so the underground critters can get to work.

In nature there is no waste. We humans have screwed that one up, big time.

I don't like the way the crickets smell. I don't know about their poo.
