NEW: 2 Species to Choose From
Regular Flightless Fruit Flies (Drosophila Hydei)
*NEW* Golden Flightless Fruit Fly Culture (Drosophilia melanogaster)
We offer two different ways to buy fruit flies online at Internet Reptile; cultures (which hatch flies over time) and 'flies only' (which are hatched and ready to feed).
Cultures
This is the traditional way to buy fruit flies, each tub contains a mix of fruit fly media in which flies have laid their eggs. Simply keep the culture warm and the flies will hatch over a week or so giving an ongoing supply of fresh fruit flies. Depending on temperatures there may be some live flies at the point of delivery but this is not always the case.
Flies Only
If you need flies in a hurry, this option is just like any other livefood, its simply a tub containing flies which you can use straight away. Note that flies can be quite short lived so they tend to be best when you have an immediate need. Keep a slice of banana in the tub to help them last longer.
Live arrival guarantee:
We understand these items are not sold to be used immediately, we therefore extend the policy to 7 days to allow ample time for hatching, please keep them warm and report any issues (e.g. not hatching) within 7 days of delivery.
We want you to be confident your live-food will arrive fresh and live... the insects we post for on the overwhelming majority of orders do just that.
Occasionally though, humidity, delays or temperature can cause issues.
If that happens, don't panic: simply email us a photo showing the problem, within 24 hours of receipt, we'll replace them free of charge. It really is that simple.
*excludes orders where you have been unavailable to take the delivery on the first delivery attempt or have delivery rescheduled for a later date .
