CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Are there any technical requirements for breeding ants?

Ants are mainly used as fertilizer and feed for various crops and animals. They have high nutritional value and certain medicinal value. The scale of breeding is increasing day by day, and the breeding prospects are relatively broad. Here are some breeding methods for you.

1. Ant nest location

The establishment of an ant nest has certain requirements for the environment. Whether it is planted indoors or outdoors, make sure there is sufficient light and no other objects to prevent odor. Ants are very sensitive to smells. Once there is a slight smell, a large number of ants may die, so the nest must be built in a dry place. This is because the ants are so small that only a small amount of water can disperse the ant colony. Therefore, it is very important to ensure that there is no water around the nest and keep it dry.

2. Equipment Preparation

First, the water tank is built around the site with seamless objects such as plastic sheets. Controlling the size of the water tank and ensuring that the water tank has a certain slope can effectively prevent ants from falling into the water tank and dying when drinking water. The water tank also needs a water exchange hole. There is a frame on the water tank, and bamboo or wooden strips are arranged on the frame according to the track. Control the distance between each scaffolding and place an appropriate amount of rotten sand at the bottom to ensure that the ants can drink water normally.

3. Feeding Box Preparation

Paper boxes such as shoe boxes and food boxes can be used as feeding boxes. Place an appropriate amount of Masson pine for nesting or some hay at the bottom of the feeding box. Remember to dry the plant stems before putting them in to prevent them from rotting and threatening the growth of ants. Pay attention to the even placement of the litter, and the local litter should not be too thick or too thin. Then seal the feeding tank and keep the outlet open. Control the distance between the feeding boxes to prevent fighting.

4. Feeding and Management

Ants have a variety of eating habits, but their appetites are small. On average, each ant eats less than 0.1 mg of food per day. Basically, ants eat once every four days. When feeding, place the bowl on top of the feeding box. Make sure there is enough food at a time and clean it regularly to minimize the deterioration of food residues. Change the type of food appropriately to avoid ant anorexia.

The above is an analysis of the key technical points of Mayi breeding and the issues that need to be paid attention to during the breeding process. It is provided for your reference and learning. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Yes, you need to master the correct theoretical basic knowledge and techniques, choose the right ant species, choose high-quality feed, pay attention to the feed formula, pay attention to the feeding time, and do a good job of preventing diseases and pests.

Understand the living habits of ants, choose a breeding farm suitable for ants, select high-quality ant species, pay attention to the room temperature and nutrients for ant breeding, and learn more professional breeding skills.

Be sure to pay attention to environmental hygiene and ventilation, feed the ants high-quality feed regularly, pay attention to the ants' physical condition, and feed them water regularly.
