Anyone out there know an online source for purchasing dung beetles? Didn't know daily wormer would wipe ours out!!!! In the past, by late spring they were rolling lots of little horse poop balls away, and we NEVER have manure issues around barn.

Michelle, This is a great idea, but if you are feeding the daily wormer (or even routine Ivermectins), the dung beetles that you introduce will only be killed. Isn't is interesting that the moxidectins supposedly do not kill the dung beetles?

I am hoping to "boost" the population around the barn, and switch to moxidectin wormers during their activity. But can't find a stupid source to buy more!! Who woulda thunk it????
