Can I just remind anyone wanting information or with any order issues to email the address stated on the website:

admin@bluemantis.co.uk

as I do not come on to this forum more than a few times a week and will therefore be slow responding here.

Just placed my first order.... I'm impressed with the website, the info on the website and i'm very confident in purchasing items with Livefoods For Good.......

Had seen many other wistes offering cheap livefoods, but LFG won my custom as the reviews have been good and they give profits to charities and thats excellent.

Well done x

had a look can not find any fruit flies when will they be back in stock please?

Hello,

All our livefood comes direct from the breeders, and we are reliant on their stocks. They have recently had a shortage of fruitfly cultures (not entirely sure why) but they are working on getting it sorted.

As soon as our suppliers can meet the demand again we will put them back on the website. Hopefully this will be days rather than weeks.

In the meantime there is an individual I can recommend who does only flies (well I'm not going to send you to the competition!) and does them well.. he's not a large scale breeder, and can be contacted via another forum.

To avoid upsetting anyone I won't post link to forum here, please PM me if required.

FYI, this email sent to all customers this morning...

Quote:

Dear Customer,

Due to problems with two of the leading livefood breeders, our breeder and supplier (who are running at normal output) are experiencing a much higher than normal demand for livefoods.

There is (as some of you trying to buy from your local shop will by now be aware) a nationwide shortage of locusts, and the substitution of crickets has led to a shortage of them too.

As a result, there have been a higher than usual number of items going out of stock over the last few days, and it is not possible to predict all items affected in advance.

During this time we will, as is our usual practice, substitute with items of the same species and next size down where possible, so that customers have something they can use. If this is not possible, we will despatch the remainder of orders and refund the cost of those items we were unable to provide.

Please bear with us, with all that is happening we are actually among the least affected - all the main livefood suppliers have been hit by this.

We hope to provide a normal service ASAP and will do our best to minimise the effect on all our customers. In one way or another this is currently
affecting about 1 in 4 orders.

On a brighter note, customers who haven't visited us for some time will notice we have gradually lowered prices over the last few months (tubs are currently £1.99), and we are pleased to have seen a substantial increase in customer numbers recently. As always, we are looking at ways to provide a better experience for all our customers and welcome your suggestions.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or concerns (please email admin@bluemantis.co.uk)

Regards,

Matt
