FWIW, I think black soldier fly larvae will be more representative of farmed insects. For example, this farm is anticipated to produce 80,000 tonnes of BSF larvae (dried weight, as 60,000 tonnes of protein meal and 20,000 tonnes of oil), and I think that comes out to around 1 to 2 trillion larvae per year:

Ynsect also has a very large mealworm farm under construction, but most other insect farmers (by production and investment; Protix is another big one) seem to be focused on BSF larvae. I haven’t checked whether Ynsect alone is enough to skew them towards mealworms, though.
