I've found a few places they can be ordered from. Supposedly they're very slow to sting and hurt no more than a mosquito if they do. I'm actually playing with the idea of setting up a mesh terrarium with some flowers and an overhead light and attempting to raise them indoors, as an alternative to crickets and roaches. I imagine wild lizards would be leery of them, having had bad experiences with other bees, but mine are all CB, so, just wondering... has anybody who has them buzzing around locally ever tried them as feeders?
