CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How much does it cost to invest in cockroach farming?

1. How much does it cost to invest in cockroach breeding?

Equipment cost: 90,000 yuan, first batch purchase cost: 45,000 yuan, advertising cost: 10,000 yuan, working capital: 100,000 yuan, total investment cost: more than 279,000 yuan. At present, 100 million cockroaches can process 5 tons of garbage every day. The breeding scale depends on the local daily garbage production, especially the number of restaurants. The industry now breeds "American cockroaches", an insect that moves actively. This insect is very orderly and we rarely see it. After having food, it will eliminate them neatly and quickly."

3. Cockroach breeding technology and site construction?

1. Breeding site

Cockroaches are different from other animals. It is best to breed them in a relatively closed place to prevent them from escaping. Prepare a clay pot of suitable size, put some old newspapers or kraft paper rolls at the bottom, and hang drinking water and feed on the wall of the pot with iron hooks, and then cover the mouth of the pot with iron gauze and wooden boards.

2. Environmental factors

The humidity in the place where cockroaches live cannot be too low, generally it should be kept at around 70%, and they should be sprayed with water regularly to keep them moist. The temperature should not be too high, and it should be kept at around 28-33 degrees Celsius all year round. Keep away from noisy places, keep quiet, and the light should not be too strong. It is best to breed them in a dark room so that the cockroaches can grow normally.

3. Feed ratio

Cockroaches are omnivorous insects with strong digestive abilities and large appetites, so it is necessary to use nutrient-rich feed to supplement their nutrients. Mix corn meal, salt, stone powder, fish meal, lard, brown sugar, rapeseed cake, etc. and put them in the feeding trough, and make sure there is water in the trough at all times for the cockroaches to drink.

4. Prevent pesticides and pests

Cockroaches are very tenacious and reproduce quickly, but their resistance to agricultural pesticides such as Pesticide and DDT during the nymph stage is very low. They are prone to loss of appetite and even large-scale death. Therefore, pesticides must never be sprayed or applied near places where cockroaches are raised.

4. What is the cost of breeding cockroaches?

Zero cost, catch a big one, you can reproduce wirelessly

5. Why can’t cockroaches be widely bred?

Because widespread breeding is difficult, the following points must be achieved: First, insulation: Use greenhouse box breeding methods to maintain a temperature environment of 28℃ to 33℃ throughout the year.

Second, water conservation: Water is more important to cockroaches than food. Cockroaches will die if they are deprived of water for two days during the nymph stage. Water should be kept in the tank at all times.

Three-guarantee food: In order to make cockroaches grow quickly, become strong and have strong reproductive capacity, the feed in the trough must not be cut off, especially at night they must be fed well.

Fourth, we must prevent pesticide damage, disease damage, and natural enemies. In short, breeding cockroaches is not an easy task. Therefore, it cannot be widely bred.

6. How much government subsidy does it provide for raising cockroaches?

If you want to raise cockroaches, there will be no government subsidies. Cockroaches refer to insects belonging to the order Blattaria (scientific name), belonging to the phylum Arthropoda, class Insecta, order Blattaria, commonly known as cockroaches, and are common medical insects. Cockroaches are flat, dark brown, and usually medium-sized. They have small and movable heads. Their antennae are long and filamentous, and their compound eyes are well developed. Their wings are flat, with the forewings being elytra and the hindwings being membranous. The forewings and hindwings are basically the same size, covering the back of the abdomen; some species are wingless. They are not good at flying, but can run fast. They have incomplete metamorphosis. They lay eggs in egg sheaths. There are about 6,000 species, mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical areas, living outdoors or indoors.

7. Why are the cockroaches I raise not marketable?

I think there are several reasons why the cockroaches I raise myself are not marketable.

1. Choose America, Dalian is a breeding species, so it can be used as medicine, so it has a certain market in the traditional Chinese medicine market

2. Choose a good sales channel, solve the problem yourself, and let others buy your cockroaches, so that you can sell them

3. Many people have some misunderstandings about cockroaches, thinking that all cockroaches are bad, and you have to change people's perception

8. What do you think of the cockroach breeding project?

The cockroach market will develop steadily within 10 years.

The prospects for breeding cockroaches are good. In my country, the most common cockroach species that are worth breeding are the American cockroach, the Australian cockroach and the German cockroach. They are distributed in all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in my country, and are especially numerous on rural earthen stoves. They are known among the people as tea-loving lady, fragrant lady and oil-stealing lady.

Cockroaches are a kind of "good medicine for the world". There are special entries on "cockroaches" in pharmacopoeias such as "Famous Doctors' Records", "Tang Materia Medica", "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Supplement to Compendium of Materia Medica". Modern medical experts believe that cockroaches are cold in nature, salty in taste, and have the effects of dispersing blood stasis and detoxifying. They are clinically used to treat acute gastroenteritis, ascites, infantile malnutrition, sores, swelling and poison, etc. They can be dried and ground into powder for oral administration or decoction, or they can be crushed and applied externally.

Dried cockroaches have long been used in traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. With the development of medicine, their extracts are being used by more and more medical institutions to develop and make various medicines. At present, the price of dried cockroaches in the medicinal material market has risen from 28 yuan per kilogram to about 100 yuan per kilogram. The protein content in dried cockroaches is 60% to 70%, which is an excellent bait for geckos, frogs, centipedes, pheasants, toads, silver hairtails, etc. It is reported that in recent years, due to the vigorous development of precious aquatic products and rare animal breeding in Malaysia and my country, a large number of cockroaches are needed as bait, so cockroaches are in short supply and the price is high.

9. How to breed water cockroaches and water beetles?

How to breed water cockroaches and water lice

1. Breeding environment. The breeding environment for water beetles is very simple. Water beetles can be raised in large areas such as fish ponds, or in water tanks of several square meters. It takes about 8 months for water beetles to grow from eggs to adults. Water beetles are not very strict about the water environment, such as dissolved oxygen, water temperature, pH, etc. Water beetles are almost disease-free, and they eat a wide range of foods, making them very easy to breed.

2. Breeding facilities. Because water beetles are aquatic insects, they are very sensitive to water pollution such as pesticides and fertilizers, so it is generally better to build breeding ponds in the suburbs. Be careful not to build breeding ponds near places with serious pollution, especially factories and restaurants. Breeding facilities are mainly determined by the breeding area. If the number of breeding is large, a small pond can be built, and a pool or water tank can be built if the area is small. The area of ​​the water tank is about 10 square meters, and the water depth should not exceed 1 meter. Generally, 250 water beetles can be raised in one square meter. Some aquatic plants can be planted by the pool, and water plants can also be planted in the pool.

3. Breeding management. It is very easy to feed water beetles, as they are basically not picky eaters. However, artificial breeding generally relies on corn flour, rice bran and sweet fruits. You can also crush snails and feed them. Feed should be given once a day at around six o'clock. It should be noted that water should not be fed every other day to prevent fighting between water beetles due to lack of food. Toxic and spoiled food should not be fed to water beetles, otherwise it will cause the death of water beetles or prevent reproduction. Water beetles do not have high requirements for water quality. Generally, tap water or groundwater can be used for water change, as long as it is non-toxic, free of bacteria and not polluted. When the water is too dirty, it should also be changed in time.
