6. How to get into cockroach breeding?

1. Choose a container

To breed cockroaches, you first need to choose a container. Cockroaches are nocturnal animals and do not like light, so it is best to use a light-shielding container when breeding cockroaches. At the same time, friends living in rural areas will find that cockroaches generally appear more frequently in summer and less frequently in winter, so when choosing a container, you also need to choose a heat-insulating container.

2. Control the temperature

Cockroaches are animals that like warmth, so when breeding cockroaches, it is best to control the temperature above 20 degrees to allow the cockroaches to grow better. At the same time, when controlling the temperature for the cockroaches, you also need to pay attention to ventilation to avoid the cockroaches dying from lack of oxygen due to an overly hot environment.

3. Prepare food

Cockroaches are usually active between 9 and 11 p.m. every night, so it is best to provide food for cockroaches at night so that they can eat more food. At the same time, it is best to provide them with appropriate food, such as rice, apple cores, vegetables, etc.

4. Notes

Cockroaches are generally pests, so common insecticides on the market can kill cockroaches. Generally, when breeding cockroaches, it is necessary to avoid the presence of pesticides in the cockroach breeding environment to avoid causing the death of cockroaches. At the same time, animals such as mice and ants feed on cockroaches, so when breeding cockroaches, it is also necessary to help the cockroaches avoid natural enemies.

7. 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.

8. What are the costs and profits of cockroach breeding?

American cockroaches are large in size, have medicinal and edible value, and are increasingly expensive, making for considerable profits. The gross income per square meter is around 1,000. The breeding environment requires insulation, moisture retention, and ventilation. The initial investment may be relatively high. It is recommended that you buy some relevant books or check online. It is best to understand the local market environment and see if there are any distributors purchasing them. If there are special purchasers, and there are relatively few people breeding them in your area, if you can succeed, it will be a way to get rich. I wish you success in your business!
