CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Do red worms need ventilation? (Do red worms need ventilation? Why?)

1. How to preserve red worms in winter so that they will not die?

Red worms can be preserved by soil storage, simple storage, wet towel storage, and low temperature storage. The details are as follows:

1. Soil storage method: Place the red worms in a basin with water and mud and sand. The red worms can survive for a long time, but when using them, you have to use a specially made small sieve to filter out the mud and sand to separate the mud and worms, which is more troublesome.

2. Simple storage method: Put it in tea brine or wrap it in a wet cloth for 2 to 3 days.

3. Wet towel: Wrap the red worms with a wet towel or wet gauze and store them in a cool place for about 1-2 days. Soil: Soil contains moisture and nutrients and can act as a heat insulator, which can keep the red worms in a moist and dark environment, greatly extending their shelf life.

4. Low temperature: Put the bloodworms into glass, ceramic and other containers, add a small amount of water and put them in the refrigerator. Changing the water every day can also preserve them for a long time. Notes: 1. It is best to avoid contact when there are wounds on your hands, because there are many bacteria on the bloodworms. 2. Determine the temperature. Bloodworms are not easy to preserve, especially when the temperature is high. You can put them on a wet cloth or in a container. 3. It is best to use containers with a large bottom area so that they are not too thick and have good ventilation. Put them in the coolest place in your home. It should be cool, not cold. Don't freeze them. It will be difficult to feed them if they are frozen.

2. Do red worms need to breathe air?

Any living thing must breathe to sustain life, and bloodworms are no exception.

3. How to raise red worms in sand?

Put the processed sand into the container. Do not press the sand in the container with your hands. Just pour it in naturally. This way the sand will be looser and easier for the red worms to breathe. After completing this step, spread the red worms evenly on the wet sand (the surface of the sand). Then proceed to the last step. Find a piece of thin cotton cloth, wet it with clean water, cover the red worms with it, and finally place the container in a cool place indoors. The entire insect breeding process is completed.

There are some tricks to breeding red worms. Learning this little method will greatly increase the survival rate of red worms.

Later care methods: If it is winter, you can pour a little water on the cotton cloth every four or five days to ensure the moisture of the insect breeding environment; in the spring when the temperature has not reached above 20 degrees, water it every two or three days. When the temperature exceeds 20 degrees, the container needs to be placed in the refrigerator's fresh-keeping room, and the watering interval is about three or four days.

Summary of insect breeding: This wet sand method of breeding insects is what I came up with after many attempts. I have used it for three or four years and the effect is very good. Compared with breeding insects in clean water and breeding insects in a wet sponge in the refrigerator, it has the advantages of simple maintenance and long survival time. It should be noted that watering must be done on time, otherwise the red worms will die faster as the water evaporates.

4. How to preserve the bloodworms you buy for fishing?

The bloodworms you mentioned should be red worms. Red worms for fishing usually need to be kept for a few days after they are bought, so how to preserve them is particularly important. First, find a clean plastic box. If the box has a lid, it is best to poke a few holes in it to ensure ventilation.

Then find a sponge, hollow out the middle, put the red worms inside, and then put the sponge into the box. Add water to the box before putting it in the box, but the water level cannot cover the red worms. It is best to cover it with a lid and put it in the refrigerator.

5. How should we store the red worms bought from a fishing tackle store so that they can live longer?

Place the red worms in moistened horse manure paper and put it in a breathable plastic box.

The box should not be placed in a place with too high temperature, especially not in the car in summer.

As long as the temperature is right, they can survive for many days.

6. How to raise red worms?

As late autumn approaches and the weather cools, it is a good time to go fishing. When it comes to bait for autumn, red worms are undoubtedly ranked first.

In fact, red worms have many advantages, such as broad spectrum, moderate price, and good fish bite. But there is a fatal disadvantage, which is that they cannot be stored for a long time. Female worms are fine, you can buy as many as you need, and there is no worry of waste. But this male worm, which costs 5 yuan, can be used for several days. If you can't use it up, you will waste it and throw it away. If you take it home, it is basically impossible to keep it alive...

Think about how bloodworm merchants and fishing tackle shops store them. When the quantity is large, they are basically transported with burlap, and when they are sold, they are wrapped in newspapers. We can probably guess that when storing bloodworms, we must pay attention to the two points of moisture retention and ventilation.

The editor saw a picture on the Internet, which talked about the low-temperature storage method of red worms. It seems reliable, but putting red worms in the refrigerator may only be suitable for single male anglers, because if the wife finds this thing in the refrigerator, she may go crazy...

In fact, the editor's method of preserving red worms is very simple. After washing the red worms, put them in a wet cloth, then put them in a clean disposable lunch box, and put them in a dark and ventilated place at home (shady balcony). Basically, take them out every one or two days to rinse them with water and sieve out dead worms, and it will not be a problem to keep them for a month or so!

One thing to note is that you cannot raise too many fish using this method, as they will easily pile up together and cause hypoxia.

7. How can we keep the red worms used for fishing alive longer in summer?

This is my own method, but it is very effective, you can try it:

1. Buy a breathable red worm box.

2. After buying the red worms, pick out the dead ones, and soak the remaining ones in purified water or fish water.

3. Cut old underwear into pieces (pure cotton ones), wrap the red worms in them, wet the outside with water, and put them in the red worm box.

4. Place them in the refrigerator and they will not all die within two weeks, so they can basically be used for two to three weeks.

8. How to preserve red worms?

1. Save with wet towel

First, gently wrap the red worms with wet gauze or towel to ensure that the living environment of the red worms is moist, and then place them in a cool place and store them for about 1-2 days.

2. Soil preservation

Red worms can be preserved in soil. The nutrients and moisture in the soil can provide the red worms with nutrition and a suitable environment. It can also act as a heat-insulator and wind-proof device, allowing the red worms to stay in a damp and dark place, which helps to extend the storage time.

3. Refrigerator

You can put the red worms in a ceramic or glass container with a small amount of water, then put it in the refrigerator, and change the water every 1-2 days. This way, they can be preserved for longer.

4. Cryopreservation

Find a towel that can absorb water quickly, wet it with cold water, wring out the water in the towel, then wrap the red worms and put them both in the refrigerator. Set the preservation temperature at around 0°C, so that the red worm bait can be stored for about 15 days.

9. Do red worms need ventilation?

Required

In order to allow the red worms to breathe freely during their growth, the quality of the air must be guaranteed. Natural air flow should be allowed in the breeding area. More contact with the air can effectively increase the oxygen content. When the temperature is too high, some artificial methods can be used to increase the oxygen content in the breeding area. When the temperature is below zero, freezing will occur. At this time, they can easily be frozen to death. Other warming measures can be used to reduce the freezing of the water surface, which can effectively allow them to grow.
