Pet food might be more lucrative. Or fish food.

But it is not a goldmine. Dogs, cats etc have better teeth and like to eat a lot of meat, that humans generally does not eat: rabbit ears, tendons, throats, noses, etc.

Insect food is not that cheap. A lot of pet stores give out free treat samples. My dog normally loves all treats, but refuses to eat the the insect treats (before I realize they are made from insects).

I am sure there are companies making a good living making insect pet food. But it is probably not that obvious a choice.
