Hello,
I am from Hochiminh city - Viet Nam
I recently discovered a species of bamboo worms are omphisa fuscidentali
Do you know how to rear a large amount (omphisa fuscidentali)? Please help me,
Because, It can be a kind of food for people
Dear Ân Thiên Đặng

Hello Dear
I read tha tCollection of the larvae for consumption by people falls mainly in the period of diapause when the larvae congregate in one single internodal cavity. About 26% of their body weight is protein, and 51% fat. The name in Thai cuisine for this delicacy is "bamboo worm" (non mai phai, Thai: หนอนไม้ไผ่), but due to its appearance, it is commonly called rot duan (Thai: รถด่วน), meaning "express train". Most often it is eaten deep-fried.
