How to raise breadworms at home?
Ways to raise breadworms at home:

1. Where to live: Find a box or a glass jar. Try not to use cartons, because cartons will absorb moisture. It will be very difficult to clean up after absorbing moisture, and the bread worm will die as soon as it touches the water. All the water it needs comes from vegetables. The box should not be too high, and the area should be determined according to the number of breadworms, so as to avoid the breadworms from basking in the sun.

2. Food: Give them a few leaves a day, just cover them, or grab some corn flour and the like (don't use too much, try not to use rice flour), or feed some bread crumbs and scatter them in the box. It is best to change leaves every day.

3. Other precautions: Always clean and take out the black and hard dead bread. Breadforms become winged beetles after being peeled several times. Pick out the beetles and put them in another box. This box is tall, so it's better to cover it with a net to prevent them from climbing out or flying out. If they become fake shell worms, they don't need to clean up too much to avoid removing things like eggs as excrement. Take out stale leaves and dead insects.

Tenebrio molitor, also known as bread worm, belongs to COLEOPTERA, Tenebrionidae and Tenebrionidae (Tenebrionidae) in insect taxonomy. Originally from northern China, it was introduced by the Soviet Union in the 1950' s. Dried Tenebrio molitor contains 30% fat and 50% protein. In addition, it also contains major elements such as phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium, aluminum and various trace elements. Because the dried Tenebrio molitor larvae contain about 40% protein, 57% pupae and 60% adults, it is known as "the feed treasure house of protein".
