Mystery of the dying maggots

When I started with rearing the houseflies, the adults emerged had curly wings and hence unable to fly. My collegue started calling these 'walks'.
But having solved that, I now have a much bigger problem in my hands. A large portion of my housefly larvae are dying and I can't figure out why. Everyone is scratching their heads but that does not help me. At least there are some that made it to the adult stage, if not my boss will have my head for breakfast! Oh well, it's the weekend now. Time to hit my local pub and forget about my problems till Monday...
