1. Can cockroaches be raised artificially? If so, how to raise them?There are two types of cockroach farming: 1. Mixed breeding with earthworms 2. Mixed breeding of cockroaches and earthworms. In the practical operation of our farm, we found that there is not much conflict between cockroaches and earthworms, and they even have complementary advantages. Cockroaches do not burrow into the soil. They just hide in the cracks of the walls of the pit house during the day and come out to look for food at night. Earthworms burrow into the ground during the day and come out to look for food in the evening. In the process of raising earthworms, there will be feed that the earthworms cannot finish eating on the same day. These feeds are excellent food for cockroaches. In addition, the light, temperature and humidity in the earthworm breeding room are also extremely suitable for cockroaches. In our practice, we found that when the feed source is insufficient, adult cockroaches also prey on earthworm larvae. The solution is: ① During the day, keep the light in the breeding room at a certain level so that cockroaches cannot come out to look for food. ② When raising food, put some feed on the partitions of the earthworm pit to prevent cockroaches from starving and preying on earthworm larvae. 2. How to raise Dubia cockroaches?1. Temperature. The temperature for Dubia is between 15 and 32 degrees. The temperature in winter is relatively low. A temperature below 15 degrees may cause it to die, and a temperature above 32 degrees is not ideal either. 2. Humidity. Keep the humidity between 50% and 80%. Too high humidity will cause mold and disease, while too low humidity will be detrimental to peeling and growth. Generally speaking, humidity does not need to be considered in the south, but the north is relatively dry, so the humidity of the breeding box needs to be appropriately increased. 3. Food. Dubia is easy to raise. You can choose cat food, dog food, bran, cornmeal, bread, fish feed, etc. You can feed it some carrots, apples, cucumbers, oranges, pears, cantaloupe, bananas, etc. every week. 4. When raising Dubia cockroaches, you need to control the amount of food you feed them. Some dry feed is enough for about 2-3 days. As for foods with higher humidity, such as cucumbers and apples, the amount should be controlled to the point where they can be eaten up the next day to avoid spoilage. 5. Dubia cockroaches shed their skin as a sign of growth. Dubia cockroaches shed their skin frequently and will not move when shedding their skin, so don't assume that they are dead, and don't help them shed their skin. In some cases, they are really dead, so don't worry about them. 3. 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. 4. What procedures are required for cockroach breeding?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. 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. First, you need to go to the local animal health supervision institute to apply for an animal epidemic prevention certificate, then go to the local industrial and commercial management department to apply for a business license, and then go to the local local tax bureau to apply for a tax certificate. 5. Cockroach breeding technology and site construction?1. Breeding environment 1. The farm should be far away from the factory and in a pollution-free place, and the water should be clean and non-toxic. 2. The water depth must be 0.5-1 meter, and it cannot be directly exposed to the sun. There must be aquatic plants in the water and anti-fly nets must be installed on the water surface. 2. Site Construction 1. You can choose fish ponds, pools or water tanks, but make sure they are pollution-free. 2. The pool can be made of bricks with an area of about 5 square meters. The water depth is controlled at 0.5-1 meter, and 200-300 fish can be raised per square meter. 3. Seedling selection 1. You can purchase seedlings from seed supply departments with guarantees and technical guidance. 2. You can also catch water cockroach larvae in the wild during spring and summer. Insect breeding. 4. Breeding management 1. Bait (1) Water cockroaches are mainly carnivorous, but they also eat plants. Their feed mainly consists of corn flour, rice bran, and sweet fruits. (2) They can also be fed crushed snails, dead fish and shrimp, and livestock waste. 2. Feeding: Feed once a day in the evening, the feeding amount is 7-8% of body weight, and the quality and freshness of the food must be guaranteed. 3. Management (1) The breeding cycle of water cockroaches is 8 months. They are mainly fed with meat in the first 3 months and mixed feed in the last 5 months. (2) Water cockroaches do not have high requirements for water quality, but if the water is too turbid, the water needs to be changed in time. 6. 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. 7. What is the ultimate method for raising Dubia cockroaches?1. Temperature. The temperature for Dubia breeding is between 15 and 32 degrees. The temperature in winter is relatively low. Below 15 degrees may cause its death, and above 32 degrees is not ideal. 2. Humidity. Keep the humidity between 50% and 80%. Too high humidity will cause mold and disease, while too low humidity will be detrimental to peeling and growth. Generally speaking, humidity does not need to be considered in the south, but the north is relatively dry, so the humidity of the breeding box needs to be appropriately increased. 8. 10 ways to raise cockroaches?1.

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. |
