To: wisbirdn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tuesday, May 18, 2010, 1:25 PM Hi All, Just wondering in I could get the word out for some advice and possible help. There is a nest box in Minooka Park one of five I've been monitoring, (I kind of just eusurped the trail, I never saw anyone monitor it or any maintenance done), since the beginning of April. I had two blowfly larva in the front of the nest about half way up that were exposed when I opened the front of the peterson box. In my experience I always found them on the very bottom. I removed them but didn't want to disturb the chicks. There were no larva under the nest. I'm worried that I should have completely removed the nest to check, but the chicks are pretty big now. If someone is near Minooka, would you like to take a look? What do YOU do to remove blowfly larva....!
