4. How to breed black fireflies

1. Breeding equipment: Fireflies can be raised in wire cages or glass bottles, but be sure to leave ventilation holes. Transparent plastic boxes can also be used, but be sure to leave ventilation holes. It is best to use iron gauze as a cover. This kind of insects will not fight or bite each other, so multiple insects can be raised together. You can put some tender locust leaves or freshly picked grass in the bottle, and cover the bottle mouth with plastic gauze, iron gauze or gauze. The bottle should maintain a certain humidity, and you can sprinkle a little water every day, and spray some water before feeding tender grass or locust leaves before putting them in.

2. Feeding: Fireflies love to eat the body fluids of snails. Every 2 to 3 days, you can catch 1 to 2 live snails and put them in the feeder for them to eat. If it is a glass bottle or a transparent plastic box feeder, you can observe it eating snails. If you raise 10 to 25 fireflies in the bottle, you only need to feed 1 snail each time. If you raise more than 25 fireflies, you can put 2 snails each time. Generally, it can be raised for 15 to 20 days. If it is raised well, it can live for 1 month.

Firefly breeding management

1. Breeding site: Firefly breeding sites should be arranged as close to the natural environment as possible. Aquatic and terrestrial environments can be considered. Note that the river slopes should be soil to provide space for mature larvae to pupate.

2. Terrestrial species: If the firefly larvae are terrestrial, they should be covered with a fine net to prevent them from escaping. You can also plant a vegetable garden to raise snails for the larvae to prey on. Terrestrial firefly larvae mostly eat smaller snails, although there are some exceptions, such as the two-colored firefly that only eats earthworms and not snails.

3. Aquatic species: For aquatic species, artificial rivers can be built to allow water to circulate. It is best to have artificial waterfalls to increase the amount of oxygen dissolved naturally. However, it should be noted that firefly larvae require a slow-flowing environment. Then carp and other species can be raised in the river, and algae can be reproduced with the feces of the carp. These algae can provide food for snails, and the firefly larvae can prey on these snails, and sometimes also eat small fish, tadpoles, etc.

4. Adult management: After the fireflies pupate and transform into adults, most species of fireflies almost do not eat or drink, and often only eat dew, honeydew or pollen and nectar. In South America, there are a few species of adult fireflies that will glow and prey on other types of fireflies or small phototactic insects as food.
