1. Can cicadas be kept?

Cicadas have a short lifespan and are very noisy. Don’t keep cicadas. If you catch one, let it go and let it live its life freely.

It is not easy to raise it, it can live for three or four days. Hope you can adopt it.

2. How to raise cicada monkeys?

First, soil. Generally, golden cicadas prefer fruit trees, which are rich in sap, so they usually choose fertile soil. However, they must choose flat land and not too much water. Second, burying the egg sticks. First, take the egg sticks to the incubator and store them under constant temperature. Then dig a 50-centimeter ditch around the fruit tree and bury the egg sticks in it. Attention should be paid to the density. There should be drainage devices. Third, hatching. In about fifteen days, the larvae will hatch. At this time, some larvae will climb up and down on the branches. When about 20% of the larvae are hatched, they should be buried. During the hatching period, according to the hatching situation, when a small number of golden cicada larvae are found to be active, the branches can be placed in the breeding site together with fine sand for planting. Fourth, pay attention to the natural enemies in the food chain during the breeding process. Under the requirements for soil, there should be no natural enemies such as ants and mice. Fifth, harvesting. Generally speaking, artificially cultivated cicadas can be harvested in two years. At this time, in order to allow them to climb to higher places, you need to wrap tape around the fruit trees so that you can harvest them with confidence. Sixth, after harvesting the insects, the rest is to sell them in the market. At this time, you need to conduct buying and selling activities based on the characteristics of the cicada market.

4. Can a cicada survive if placed in a flower pot?

Of course I can raise one, because I have raised one before.

Many years ago, there was a Chinese toon tree on my balcony. It was only slightly thicker than my thumb and more than one meter tall. After the cicada monkeys I caught shed their shells on the screens in the house and became cicadas (I often catch a lot and pick a few to let them transform), I picked a male one, tied a string around its neck, and placed it on the Chinese toon tree on the balcony. Unexpectedly, at noon the next day, a loud noise came and the guy actually started singing. I looked through the glass and saw that its mouthparts were inserted into the tree trunk and it was drinking Coke.

Later I opened the door to see, and it was startled and flew up, and a stream of urine shot towards me. Oh my god, I smelled it, and it smelled like Chinese toon.

If you want to keep it alive, it depends on whether the juice of the plant in your house tastes good. You can try it, but if it is too thin, it can't climb up.

No, you can't keep cicadas alive. Release them, Amitabha.

It can't be kept for long. It can only live for 1-2 days if caught at home.

Look what that is...
