1. How long does it take for the cicada monkey to come out after planting? Is it artificially planted?

About a year and a half.

Cicadas are mainly bred under forests. Their growth needs can be met under various fruit trees and timber trees. There is no need to invest in building sites or buildings, and there is no need to purchase other breeding facilities. my country is rich in forest resources, and it is generally difficult to plant crops under fruit trees and other trees that are more than three years old. Cicada breeding makes use of the space under trees and grows by sucking the sap from the roots. It can be said that this develops breeding without affecting the growth of trees. It kills two birds with one stone. The entire breeding process does not require feeding management, epidemic prevention, etc., and does not occupy labor.

The life of a cicada goes through three different stages: egg, larva, and adult. The eggs are laid on trees, the larvae live underground, and the adults return to the trees. After mating, the male cicada completes its mission and dies soon. The female cicada begins to lay eggs. It uses its sharp ovipositor to pierce small holes on the branches, laying four to eight eggs at a time. It often pierces dozens of holes on a branch. Then the female cicada stops eating and drinking and dies soon. The eggs overwinter in the branches, and the larvae hatch in the summer of the following year with the help of the warmth of the sun.

2. In which month can cicada monkeys be planted in wheat fields?

Cicada monkeys cannot be planted in wheat fields. Cicada monkeys need to rely on the sap from the roots of trees such as apples, pears, hawthorns, and poplars as a food source, but the roots of wheat are too small for cicada monkeys to survive.

3. Is it suitable to plant cicada monkeys in the ginkgo field?

Yes, cicada monkeys will suck moisture from the roots of ginkgo trees.

4. Will planting cicadas harm fruit trees?

Raising cicadas under fruit trees will have a certain impact on the fruit bearing of the trees.

The larvae of the cicada feed on the sap in the roots of fruit trees; if the adults emerge and climb up the trees, the female adults will lay eggs in the upper and middle parts of the new shoots of that year, causing the new shoots to die, affecting photosynthesis and reducing fruit yield and quality to a certain extent.

5. What kind of land is needed to grow cicada monkeys?

The soil requirements for cicada breeding: the best is sandy soil, and the plain formed by river impact is the best! If there is no river impact condition, choose a land with 30% sand and 70% soil. There must also be an orchard or forest on the ground with a good root system. The main food source of cicadas is to suck the juice of tree roots!
