The highest microbial load was observed in the adults, with a concentration of 2.72 × 10⁷ CFU/mL. The alive larvae (first/second instar) showed a microbial load of 9.36 × 10⁶ CFU/mL while for the third/fourth instar, we managed to detect 1.12 × 10⁶ CFU/mL. For the alive eggs, microbial counts were found at 9.0 × 10³ CFU/mL and 1.0 × 10⁴ CFU/mL. Alive pupae expressed a microbial load of 1.32 × 10⁷ CFU/mL.
