How to I store excess cocoons 3 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 0  
Hi!
Is it possible to remove a large number of cocoons from a crowded bin and still have good results when time to allow them to hatch as well as if they had remained int he bing?
Thanks SOOO very much!

Sure remove them store them in a separate container.
Try storing them in cooler temps with just paper. When the time is right they will hatch. The cooler temp will slow down the process just like winter time. The worms in the spring are the cocoons from last fall.
