Matters needing attention in Tenebrio Molitor Culture

Tenebrio Molitor is a raw material for feed processing, especially in recent years, the state's support for the aquaculture industry is very large, so the demand for feed has increased significantly, and Tenebrio Molitor is rich in high-spirited materials. it is the favorite of many animals, so the breeding industry of Tenebrio Molitor has also ushered in its peak period, so what do you need to pay attention to when breeding Tenebrio Molitor? Let's follow the editor to get to know it.

1. Temperature

The temperature management of Tenebrio Molitor breeding is a very important factor. if the temperature is unreasonable, it will be very difficult for the Tenebrio Molitor to hatch, which means that the yield will not be very high, and even the insects may die. therefore, when we breed, we should pay attention to keep the temperature of the culture room at about 25 to 30 degrees, the lowest temperature should not be lower than 15 degrees, and the highest temperature should not be higher than 35 degrees, otherwise it will be dried.

2. Hygiene

Although Tenebrio Molitor is an insect, not all bugs like the dirty living environment. When breeding, we should pay attention to the management of the sanitary environment in the farm, carry out irregular cleaning and disinfection, and keep the hygiene of the feeding plate clean at the same time. Then the remaining feed residue after feeding should be cleaned out in time to avoid decay leading to disease.

3. Density

We all know that the breeding of Tenebrio Molitor is generally carried out by the method of three-dimensional culture, so that the space can be used to the maximum extent. At the same time, the number of Tenebrio Molitor in each layer is relatively large, and it seems to be densely packed. Although it is still limited, the density of culture is usually no more than three centimeters thick. If it is too thick, the body of the Tenebrio Molitor can not dissipate heat in time, and the phenomenon of heat death will occur. Therefore, when breeding, we should pay attention to the density of breeding can not be too large, generally it is about two to three centimeters of density.

4. Management

The main thing to pay attention to in the management of Tenebrio Molitor culture is feed management and group management. Tenebrio Molitor mainly feeds on vegetable leaves, corn and wheat bran, so what we should pay attention to is that these feeds should be fed without spraying and without decay and mildew, otherwise the Tenebrio Molitor will be fed to death, and the second is to pay attention to the dosage when feeding, and feed it three times a day. Cluster management is mainly based on the growth of Tenebrio Molitor to carry out reasonable grouping, which is not only convenient for unified management, but also controls the density, which is beneficial to the growth of Tenebrio Molitor.

5. Disease prevention

In the process of breeding Tenebrio Molitor, we also need to pay attention to the prevention of disease and some of its natural enemies, and the harm of mites to Tenebrio Molitor is very great, so we should strictly check and manage the farmed feed. the second is to encounter ants, mice and other timely hunting and killing, in case of harm to the yellow powder insect. The most common diseases of Tenebrio Molitor are dry blight and soft rot, which can be controlled by reducing temperature and humidity, and we can also use chlortetracycline to control soft rot.
