How I keep Them
Green Bottle Maggots:
When you receive your Green Bottle Maggots, just place them into a container with small holes and store them in the fridge or a cool dark place. 
 
Green Bottle Casters:
When you receive your Green Bottle Casters you should transfer them to a breathable tub like a cricket tub, or anything with holes small enough so the adult blue bottle flies cant escape; then simply wait until they emerge. 

Once your Green Bottle Casters have hatched, pop them into your fridge to render them semi dormant, this will prolong their longevity massively. You can soak a ball of kitchen roll in honey or sugar water, lightly squeeze so it's not dripping and place in one corner.

To get your green bottle flies out of the tub, put your flies in the fridge for around 15-20mins which will make them sluggish and you can simply pick them out with tweezers or your fingers. Just remember to close the lid on your green bottle fly container as they reanimate rather quickly. Promptly pop the fly into your enclosure and dinner is served.
 
When the Green Bottle Casters have hatched into flies, I keep them in a netted enclosure with food and use them as needed.
 
Green bottle maggots or casters are an excellent feed for many insectivores. Green bottle maggots are a medium size maggot to feed many terrestrial inverts that feed on live insects. Green bottle casters can be hatched into flies to feed many arboreal inverts that feed on live insects.
