I don't know what they are called, but I get tons of them in my cricket bin. Supposedly, they eat dead crickets and my gecko have eaten the larvae with no problem. They are kindda like the clean up crew.

just about every cricket farm out there will have those larvea. They are basically there to eat the dead crickets, larvae of one of various species of carrion beetles. They are safe to feed to bearded dragons.

I use Millbrook Crickets and there are no unwanted bugs in their shipments.
