why crickets?
All our crickets are farmed right here in the UK and nurtured on a high quality, locally sourced diet. At Bugvita, we are committed to producing crickets of the highest standards and we offer complete transparency in every aspect of our process. From the very instant a cricket hatches right through to the dedicated hands that harvest it, we track each moment.
​
Our crickets provide all the essential amino acids you need with a minimal environmental footprint. Converting feed into protein far more effectively than conventional livestock, whilst producing fewer greenhouse gases, consuming less water, and requiring minimal space.
​
We call our crickets a 'Six Legged Superfood' for good reason - and it's not just because they are packed with protein. They are also a great source of B12, iron, and calcium. Their 3:1 ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 fatty acids is perfect for fighting inflammation and maintaining a healthy balance. What's more, their unique fibre, chitin, is a prebiotic powerhouse not found in plant-based or traditional meat diets.
