Has anyone used ordinary baking flour when cleaning maggots?

If you mean to clean them, no..........but if you sprinkle a teaspoon of flour onto your 'cleaned' maggots,they certainly appear to be much larger.

yes Merv
I keep any maggots left from one trip for the next and was thinking of riddling of the maggots and then adding soem flour to keep from smelling
I'll not use slef raising flour as I don't want them to float

I have as a kid, it's not the way forward.
Saw dust to clean them, particularly if their is any hint of moisture. Next, riddle them off and add fresh maize meal to the clean, dry maggots.
