Insect Protein Meal – (de fatted)
Price range: £6.49 through £3,199.99***THIS PRODUCT IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY***This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pagePremium Black Soldier Fly Insect Protein – Quality Without Compromise
A new generation of sustainable, high-quality insect protein for serious bait makers.
Not all insect proteins are created equal!
At AA Baits, we’re constantly searching for innovative, high-quality ingredients that offer genuine nutritional benefits to modern bait formulations. Our premium Black Soldier Fly (BSF) insect protein is sourced from a world-leading biotechnology specialist dedicated to producing some of the finest insect-based nutritional ingredients available.
Produced from carefully reared Hermetia illucens (Black Soldier Fly) larvae, this premium insect meal offers excellent nutritional value, full traceability and exceptional production standards.
Unlike some insect meals on the market, this product is produced using advanced biotechnology, carefully controlled feeding programmes and a solvent-free extraction process.
It All Starts With What the Larvae Are Fed!
One of the most important factors when choosing insect protein is understanding exactly what the larvae have been eating.
You wouldn’t compromise on the ingredients in your bait, so why compromise on what your insect protein has been fed?
Our supplier has taken insect nutrition to another level. Over 100 different co-products have been evaluated and more than 200 feeding recipes tested to develop a carefully balanced nutritional substrate that meets the requirements of the larvae throughout every stage of development.
The result is a scientifically developed feeding programme using a 100% plant-based substrate, rather than relying on random or poorly controlled waste materials.
This is particularly important for bait manufacturers looking for consistent nutritional quality, reliable protein levels and confidence in the ingredients they use.
Every batch is produced from carefully reared larvae, with 100% traceability throughout the production process.
Advanced Biotechnology – Quality Without Compromise
Our insect protein comes from one of the world’s leading specialists in Black Soldier Fly biotechnology, operating state-of-the-art production facilities dedicated to insect nutrition.
These aren’t ordinary insect farms. The facilities combine sophisticated rearing systems, carefully controlled environments and specialist processing technology, with dedicated research laboratories that wouldn’t look out of place in the pharmaceutical industry.
Significant investment in research and development has helped advance the science behind insect nutrition, improving product consistency, nutritional quality and production efficiency.
This isn’t simply a case of breeding insects and grinding them into meal. It’s a scientifically developed process designed to produce premium nutritional ingredients to consistently high standards.
Premium Defatted Insect Protein – Solvent-Free Processing
Our insect protein is produced from 100% farm-reared Black Soldier Fly larvae.
Following harvesting, the larvae undergo a carefully controlled mechanical and thermal process to produce a dried, defatted, free-flowing brown powder.
No chemical solvents are used during the extraction process.
The defatting process is particularly important when incorporating insect meal into fishing bait formulations. Black Soldier Fly larvae naturally contain significant quantities of fat, including saturated fats, which can become firm or solid at relatively low temperatures.
Reducing the fat content creates a more versatile protein ingredient for bait makers, particularly when developing balanced boilie base mixes.

Why Use Black Soldier Fly Protein in Fishing Baits?
Black Soldier Fly protein is becoming increasingly popular within the fishing bait industry thanks to its excellent nutritional profile and versatility.
It provides bait manufacturers with an alternative protein source that can be incorporated into a wide range of formulations, including boilies, hookbaits and specialist base mixes.
Key Benefits:
- High protein content: Contains 50–55% protein, providing valuable nutritional benefits to bait formulations.
- Excellent amino acid profile: Supplies a broad range of amino acids, making it a useful addition to balanced nutritional formulations.
- Defatted and dried: A versatile, free-flowing powder that incorporates easily into dry base mixes.
- 100% traceable: Produced from carefully controlled, farm-reared Black Soldier Fly larvae.
- Scientifically developed larvae nutrition: Raised exclusively on a specially formulated, 100% plant-based feeding substrate.
- Solvent-free processing: Manufactured using mechanical and thermal extraction methods.
- Sustainable protein alternative: An innovative protein source with potential environmental advantages over conventional animal proteins.
- Consistent quality: Produced under carefully controlled conditions to deliver reliable nutritional specifications.
Recommended Inclusion Levels
For boilie and carp bait formulations, we recommend experimenting with inclusion levels of up to 20% (200g per kg of base mix), depending on the other ingredients used and the desired characteristics of the finished bait.
Please note that Black Soldier Fly meal is naturally relatively lightweight and may contribute to increased buoyancy when used at higher inclusion levels.
This should be considered when developing bottom bait formulations, particularly where bait density and sinking characteristics are important.
Sustainability Without Sacrificing Quality
Insect protein represents an exciting development in sustainable nutrition.
Black Soldier Fly larvae can efficiently convert carefully selected plant-based materials into valuable protein and fats, potentially requiring less land and generating fewer greenhouse gas emissions than many conventional protein production systems.
By using a scientifically formulated, 100% plant-based feeding substrate, our supplier combines responsible ingredient sourcing with advanced biotechnology.
For bait makers, this provides an opportunity to incorporate an innovative, more sustainable protein source without compromising on nutritional quality.
Full Traceability & Quality Assurance
Our supplier’s commitment to quality extends beyond nutritional performance.
Production facilities operate under recognised animal feed safety standards, including GMP+ F certification and HACCP-compliant processing.
The product is manufactured from Category 3 animal by-products in accordance with relevant EU regulations and meets specified requirements concerning undesirable substances, including heavy metals, dioxins, pesticides and mycotoxins.
For added product stability, the meal contains an approved antioxidant, either tocopherols or BHT, depending on the production specification.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry environment. Shelf life is up to 12 months from the date of production when stored correctly.
Buy With Confidence From AA Baits
We believe serious bait makers deserve the highest-quality ingredients available.
With insect protein, the quality of the finished meal depends heavily on what the larvae are fed, how they’re reared and the processes used to produce the finished product.
That’s why we’ve carefully selected a specialist supplier operating at the forefront of insect biotechnology, with an exceptional commitment to nutritional quality, scientific research and production consistency.
100% traceable. 100% plant-fed larvae. Solvent-free processing. Premium insect protein.

Tips
- Remember our sweet whey powder can be used to add binding to any mix. Start by adding 5% – 50g per kg mix, you can then adjust accordingly. Adding more will increase the binding, vice versa adding less will decrease the break down time. This is to be added to the dry mix, then mixed very well before wetting.
- We recommend slowly adding water/liquid additives to any mix, be careful not to add too much water. A nice fluffy texture that still breaks down is ideal. Too much water can make a mix go hard. More water can always be added if required, but it can’t be removed.
- 1L pump spray bottle is ideal for wetting mixes, also great for mixing liquid additives with water before wetting mix.
- Once desired texture is achieved keep in an air tight bucket/container, this helps stop it from drying out.
