Answer 1

They are not really known as calciworms, but rather as pheonix worms or soldier grub. They are the larvae form of the Black Soldier Fly. They can be treated as compost worms. Use a screen mesh over the container, so when the adults emerge from pupae form they dont fly away. The flies will reproduce in the enclosure and you can keep a culture going as long as you have food.
