Day 0 of a black soldier fly. In this short video, you can see a newly hatched BSF neonate emerging from the egg. It is almost transparent, extremely small, and highly sensitive. But this tiny moment is where industrial BSF production begins. Tiny stage. Huge impact.

Black Soldier Fly is becoming much more than an alternative protein. It combines high-quality nutrition, improved animal welfare, and circular production into a single performance ingredient for pig farming. #SwineNutrition #AnimalNutrition #CircularEconomy

We’re excited to share that FreezeM will be attending Insect to Feed the World 2026 (IFW 2026) in Torino, Italy this June - and proud to participate as a Silver Sponsor. If you’ll be attending, let’s connect! #IFW2026 #InsectToFeedTheWorld #InsectFarming #BSF #BlackSoldierFly

The fishmeal gap isn't coming. It's already here. Aquaculture consumed 5.22 million MT of fishmeal in 2024 - that's 90.6% of everything produced globally. Total supply has averaged 5.29M MT for a decade. Flat. Structurally capped by what the ocean can give us.

New interesting research: BSF larvae below a critical weight threshold of 83 mg can enter a starvation-induced quiescent state and survive for up to 6 months, then resume normal development the moment food becomes available again. doi.org/10.1016/j.asd.2026.1… #BlackSoldierFly

A Super El Niño is forming. For aquafeed, that's not a weather story — it's a supply chain warning. theguardian.com/environment/…

A new paper on insect meal in aquafeed just dropped: mdpi.com/2076-2615/16/7/1000 Key takeaway: BSF can replace fishmeal — but results vary. Maybe the real question isn’t “what replaces fishmeal?” …but “how do we formulate better diets?” #Aquaculture #InsectProtein #FeedInnovation

Synchronized swimmers don't just move together—they start from the same position. In BSF farming, inconsistent growth is a silent profit killer. PauseM® solves this by putting neonates in developmental arrest, ensuring every larva starts at Day 0. freeze-em.com/products/pause…

Black Soldier Flies pull off one of nature’s best Houdini acts They don’t emerge from a cocoon. Instead, they pupate inside their own hardened larval skin - a puparium. The adult has no mouthparts, so it can’t chew its way out. The solution? Hydraulics.

Fishmeal shortage by 2028. The math doesn’t work without new protein sources. 🇯🇵 Feed-One scaling mealworm trials 🇪🇺 Innovafeed × NaturAlleva moving to commercial volumes Insect protein is shifting from “niche” to infrastructure. Blue food’s future is being built on land.

Salmon farming has led innovation for decades. Feed & nutrition are still catching up. Insects—especially Black Soldier Fly—are moving from “alternative” to strategic necessity, enabling circular, scalable, resilient salmon production. 🐟♻️ #Aquaculture #BSF #SustainableFeed

❤️ Love (and Science) are in the Air — and in the Larvae! This Valentine’s Day, our lab is looking a little more rosy than usual! These pink Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae are pink thanks to Red Fluorescent Protein (RFP) expression! T

🌱 FreezeM at Sustainable Foods 2026 🌱 We’re excited to share that FreezeM will be attending the 5th Annual Sustainable Foods Conference in London next week. Ivan Ante Nikolic, VP Business Development, will be on site so feel free to reach out if you're attending

Black Soldier Flies don’t have lungs. They don’t breathe through their mouth or nose either. Instead, they rely on an elegant and highly efficient system called the tracheal system. #BlackSoldierFly #Entomology #InsectBiology #Biomimicry #SustainableProtein #FreezeM

BSF oil is emerging as a powerful, sustainable alternative to conventional fats used in feed and industrial applications. It is a highly digestible energy source, has natural antimicrobial properties, is sustainably produced, and has promising applications beyond food.

High nutrition. Low footprint. Black Soldier Fly larvae are redefining what efficient protein looks like. This visual is based on nutritional data from a 2022 Insects paper by Niu et al.: mdpi.com/2075-4450/13/9/831 #BSFL #SustainableProtein #CircularEconomy

The Power of Frass! In field experiments performed by the lab of Dr. Liora Shaltiel-Harpaz at the MIGAL Research Institute, FreezeM’s frass boosted cucumber yields by 25%. This is yet another demonstration of the growing potential of frass as a high-value, fertilizer!

In his Latest get the bug podcast, Umberto Diecinove talks to our own Adi Abada and Idan Alyagor about the early BSF industry hardships and how the upsurge of specialized companies like FreezeM, marks a turning point to a more mature market lnkd.in/dmXXSMfc

A recent Wageningen University & Research study, “Conversion of mycotoxin-contaminated maize by black soldier fly larvae (BSFL)”, provides an exciting data-driven perspective on how this waste stream might be safely upcycled. edepot.wur.nl/650999
