My beetles fly to my hand because usually when I reach in for mealworms I have a fruit in my hand to place in their.

On a side note I have about 50 beetles how many meal worm larva would they produce?

Each female beetle can lay upwards of 300 eggs so.....a lot. ;)

Right.

In fact i have about 100 beetles. D: Not good for me! they arre giving foul smell!

Oh my goodness well actually no it isn't that bad I guess because I am going to start breeding so next season I would have big plump mealies =)
I am guesstimating I have 25 females so that means I could have up to 7500 mealies?Then I guess I might be in trouble :O

I never have a problem with my meal worm breeding set up smelling. The occasional stinker when a beetle gets scared. Humidity and old fruit/veggies is where most of your smell will come form.
