It isn’t just the larvae that are precise, we are too

Our team of experts are waiting for each order

BioMonde’s contained Larval Therapy products, called BioBag, are manufactured in a specialist facility based in Bridgend, South Wales where the larvae of the greenbottle fly Lucilia sericata are produced specifically for wound care using an aseptic process. Each BioBag is made to order based upon the wound size and number of BioBags required for each patient.

We nurture the natural fly life cycle so we can can supply larvae with consistency and reliability.

• Our male and female flies mate in our fly room
• The female flies lay eggs on a synthetic protein source
• The eggs are removed from the fly cages
• The eggs are separated and undertake a rigorous disinfection process
• After being placed on agar plates, the eggs are hatched in incubators
• Once hatched, the larvae are dosed into porous polyester pouches
• Each pouch is heat sealed to contain the larvae.

This complex process enables us to provide larvae for immediate use so that non-healing and infected wounds can benefit from the larvae when they are in the feeding stage of their life cycle.
