I've always put it on the ground too, and I spread it around the bottom of the bowl so if any licks are taken it's easy to see.

On the note of insects, if they fill themselves up on insects all the time of course they won't be eating the CGD. I would encourage you to stop offering insects until they eat the CGD or dust the insects with CGD a couple times so they get used to the taste of it, then feed just CGD until they eat it. Another trick to get them to eat it is mixing in some baby food, but this should not become normal. The baby food just dilutes the nutrients and adds sugars, and is alright to get them to eat it, but should then be phased out over time.
