Raising beetle larvae Raising Japanese beetle larvae Japanese beetle now attracting attention as a natural resource of defensive ingredients

Larva of the beetle lays eggs in a place where there is mulch beneath the densely packed areas of Japanese rotten wood, farm manure and mountain fallen leaves.

Japanese beetle larvae may be used as feed for reptiles or sold as larvae. It takes years.

There are many insects in mulch so put a lot of mulch in vinyl. If you purchase about 50 liters, you can get a free training fee that will be a good amount in Japanese yen. In Japan, beetle larvae can be traded for more than 3500 yen for 30 larvae due to the depression of the 2020 coronavirus. In order to make a big business by selling, it is necessary to stock the number of the beetle which is improved from 10000 or more. The selling price as a single unit is 600 to 1000 yen for male and female sets.

At present, my stock of Japanese Helminths is about 30 larvae at the test stage. Of these, most of the beetles with a high hatching rate will die by the end of the summer when their lifespan is high. The beetle larvae end their life in just 365 days from the egg. The short life span makes the sales channel important even for beetles, which can be expected to rotate quickly in the product cycle. Beetles can be bred with mushroom mats for both adult larvae. Feeding insects is jelly, and larvae feeding is increased by adding beetle mats or leaf soil.
