    Lucas is 100% correct, imo.

    Some people do feed wild insect to inverts, most don't. More than parasites (which are a huge concern), I'd be worried about pesticides.

    I would not do it either due to the two statements already made. Parasites and pesticides. Plus you are probably feeding your feeders better then what the insects are eating outside.
