CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How many years does it take to breed cicadas? Here are some breeding methods

It takes about 3 years to breed cicadas, because the nymphs, or larvae, of cicadas need to live underground for 2-3 years. Breeding methods: 1. Provide nutritious forests: cultivate seedlings of broad-leaved trees and bury branches with eggs at the roots of trees in the net room. 2. Provide high-quality feed: regularly add some root plants, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and yams, to provide energy for the growth of cicadas. 3. Provide a livable environment: the place where cicada eggs are buried should be sunny, frost-proof, pollution-free, and have appropriate humidity.

2. Introduction to Zhiliao

(1) Cicadas are cicadas, a species of insect in the family Cicadidae. Cicadas use their front legs for digging. They will burrow out of the soil at dusk or at night, and then grasp the bark to molt. Male cicadas have sound organs on their abdomens that can continuously make sharp sounds. Female cicadas do not make sounds, but have auditory organs on their abdomens that can make sounds. Cicada larvae live in the soil and feed on plant roots, while adults eat plant juices. Cicadas undergo incomplete metamorphosis, and they molt multiple times from eggs to nymphs, and do not become pupae but directly become adults.

(2) In recent years, there have been cases of catching cicadas for food in Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, Anhui and other places in my country. Since cicada larvae survive for a long time underground before breaking out of the ground, large-scale capture has reduced the number of cicadas. Cicadas are facing a survival crisis and may even become extinct.

2. Cicada breeding methods

1. Provide nutritious forests for cicadas. You can cultivate seedlings of broad-leaved trees, such as willows, poplars, and elms. The trunks should be planted shorter, and the trees should be covered with nylon nets. The adult cicadas are placed on the trees in the net room to lay eggs. The eggs should be well preserved, and the branches with eggs should be buried at the roots of the trees in the net room. You can also use fruit trees in abandoned orchards, set up fences around them, surround them with wire mesh, and cover the top with nylon nets.

2. Provide high-quality feed for cicadas, such as poplars, willows, elms or some fruit trees, and regularly add some root plants, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and yams, to provide enough energy for the cicadas at all stages of growth.

3. Provide a comfortable and livable environment for cicadas. Cicada eggs should be buried at a depth of 30cm-50cm. The burial site should be sunny, frost-proof, with soft, fertile, pollution-free soil and appropriate humidity. In winter, the burial site should be covered with wheat straw, rice straw or corn stalks.
