This is a study on black fly larvae and their effect on Salmonella in chickens. From what I've read, it indicates that, while the effect of living black fly larvae to suppress the presence of Salmonella in chickens is known, there seems to be evidence that the same effect extends to *dried* larvae. So, those of us who don't yet raise our own larvae, or who do so seasonally, can reap the benefits of feeding them to our flock dried for long-term storage.
Anything that makes it easier not to develop horrible infections is a good thing!
I hope y'all are as excited about the possibilities as I am!
