CATDOLL : CATDOLL: A complete video collection of cockroach breeding methods (with pictures of a complete video collection of cockroach breeding methods)

1. How to keep cockroaches alive?

Cockroaches are very tenacious and can survive as long as there is something moist in the environment they live in. Cockroaches eat everything, including soap. They can reproduce very quickly mainly because the environment they grow in is relatively moist and the temperature is suitable.

If you want to raise cockroaches, put two cockroaches together, create a damp and unclean place for them, and put anything in there for them to eat and they will survive.

2. What is the best way to breed cockroaches?

Wooden box feeding and raising method.

The specifications of the breeding box are: 70 cm long, 50 cm wide, and 60 cm high. The cover panel of the box is movable for operation. A small window of 20 cm long and 15 cm wide is built at the front and back, and it is sealed with iron mesh nails for easy observation and air circulation. There is no bottom plate under the breeding box, which is convenient for cleaning and hygiene. The breeding box is placed in a house with a relatively flat ground (preferably a cement floor). Inside the box, a square wooden strip is nailed on the front and back sides 10 cm away from the box mouth to place a wooden frame. The wooden frame is "U" shaped, and its specifications are made according to the width of the breeding box. The two sides of the frame can be placed on the two wooden strips in the front and back of the box. The wooden frame is covered with paper (the thicker the better), and then the wooden frames are stacked one by one in the breeding box (leaving an empty space at one end for feeding and watering), which becomes a residence for cockroaches.

Choose healthy cockroaches as breeding insects, place them in a breeding box, put in a small amount of feed, initially feed with green and juicy, nutritious fruit peels, bread, steamed bread, rice, provide sufficient clean drinking water, feed once every 3 days. It is better to put the feed on the top of the wooden frame in the box, or on the bottom of the box, while drinking water can only be placed in the box. Cleaning and sanitation work is once every 3 days.

First, gently move the feed box, clean it and move it back to its original position, then add feed and change water. Cockroaches lay eggs mostly on wooden frame paper, and the larvae will hatch after more than a month of incubation.

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. 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.

5. What is the correct way to raise cockroaches at home?

1. Insulation: Use greenhouse box cultivation method to maintain the temperature environment at 28-33℃ throughout the year.

2. Water conservation: Water is more important to cockroaches than food. Cockroaches will die if they are deprived of water for 2 days during the nymph stage. Therefore, water should be kept in the tank at all times.

3. Ensure food supply: In order for cockroaches to 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 allowed to eat enough.

4. Moisturizing: The relative humidity of the environment in which cockroaches live should be above 70%. If it is too dry, spray some water.

5. Keep quiet: Keep cockroaches away from noise and avoid human disturbance.

6. Keep dark: The place where cockroaches are raised should be dimly lit, and they should be raised in a dark room and dark box.

7. Prevent pesticide damage: Cockroaches are very sensitive to many pesticides such as pest control spirit, trichlorfon, dichlorvos, malathion, etc. It is forbidden to use pesticides in places where bees are raised.

8. Disease prevention: Disease prevention includes preventing cockroaches from getting sick themselves and preventing cockroaches from becoming hosts for other pathogens. Pay attention to the environment and food hygiene of cockroaches.

9. Prevent natural enemies: Rats, bats, ants, etc. all eat cockroaches. Pay attention to prevent natural enemies from invading during the breeding process.

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. 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.
