1. 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.

2. 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. How much does it cost to raise one pound of cockroaches?

It costs nothing to raise a pound of cockroaches, all you need is a dirty and messy house.

In fact, I wonder why you keep so many cockroaches? Everyone knows that cockroaches appear in very dirty and messy places, especially in the kitchen. If your family's food is not cleaned up in time, many cockroaches will breed, and cockroaches reproduce very quickly. When you find one, there may be many of them in your home, big and small.

4. What is the best method for cockroach breeding?

Put it in a dark and humid place, it will reproduce a lot.

5. Is there a market for farmed American cockroaches?

The prospect of breeding cockroaches is good, and there is still a good market. In my country, the most common cockroach species with breeding value are American cockroaches, Australian cockroaches and German cockroaches. They are distributed in all provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in my country, especially in rural earthen stoves. They are called tea lady insects, fragrant lady and oil thief lady by the people. Dried cockroaches have long been used in traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions. With the development of medicine, their extracts are used by more and more medical institutions to develop and make various medicines.

At present, the price of dried cockroaches in the medicinal materials market has increased from 28 yuan per kilogram to about 100 yuan per kilogram.

6. 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.

7. What materials are needed for cockroach breeding?

1. First of all, you need a storage box (or various similar containers with smooth sides so that cockroaches cannot escape), the size of which can range from thirty to fifty centimeters to larger, depending on the number of cockroaches to be raised.

2. Then you need an egg cage and egg tray. This thing is used to increase the breeding space. Dubia cockroaches like to live under stones, dead wood, bark and other objects on the surface. Egg cages can provide a sense of security. The egg cage structure is suitable for stacking, which increases a lot of breeding space. At the same time, the egg cage can absorb water and play a role in regulating humidity.

3. Then it is super simple to put the egg cage in the storage box. This is much simpler than putting the elephant in the storage box. There are three strategies: I. Put it horizontally in the storage box. Put more layers to make it easier to observe. You can open it and see what is inside. II. Put the egg cage vertically in the storage box. It is said that this can provide more space and is suitable for breeding with a relatively high density. III. Combining the two is a good strategy.

4. There is also a non-essential service - drinking water. Since I carefully raise cockroaches so that they can get enough water from the food, I don’t have drinking water facilities. If you friends are too busy with military affairs or have no intention of showing kindness to cockroaches, you can choose to purchase drinking water facilities.

5. The water outlet of the bird water bottle sold in the bird market should be filled with cotton to prevent the small cockroaches from drowning.

6. Finally, let's talk about the bedding. Now there is a view that dry feed such as cat and dog food, tropical fish feed or oats should be placed on the bottom of the breeding container as bedding.

8. 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.
