Apparatus comprising a semi-rigid plastic moulding forming a shallow face plate A. Incorporated into the structure of the face plate are outlets B to which may be connected tubes D to allow the passage of air into and out of the chamber through bacteria proof filters C. A bag G forms the body of the chamber and is inflated by way of the tubes. Optionally there is a large port E, of sufficient size to enable the passage of a human hand by way of a long sleeve of a thin plastic material secured to the port to access the interior of the chamber. The apparatus is used for the production and growth of maggots for wound cleaning from fly larvae. The apparatus ensures that the maggots produced are sterile. A nutrient source is supplied in pots I. The apparatus may further comprise a transportation chamber (Fig 5) having a chamber and a lid for transporting maggots or pupae from one place to another. |
