The title is semi-true, until you hear, "my colony has mites or my colony is dying". Those words are typed or spoken a lot in forums that are frequented by people using the bugs for skull cleaning.
The truth about raising these animals is not many people really know much about them. They feed them, water them sometimes and then walk away. These small creatures tend to survive until they don't.
It's a shame because dermestids are an interesting insect that left their tooth marks on dinosaur bones and continue to survive today in pretty much the same form.
