Integral type mosquito raising device

Abstract

The invention discloses an integral type mosquito raising device, comprising a mosquito cage (1) and a water container (9), wherein a sleeve (2) is arranged at the front side of the mosquito cage (1). The mosquito cage (1) is integrally connected with the water container (9) through a bottom box; an opening is arranged on a bottom plate (7) of the bottom box, and a standby metal net (3) which is slightly larger than the opening (8) and a cover plate (4) are placed in the bottom box; a bottom framework of the mosquito cage (1) is connected with the upper edge of a top part (6) of the bottom box (6), so as to form the bottom part of the mosquito cage (1) by the bottom box; the lower part of the bottom box is connected with the water container (9), the upper edge of the top part (6) of the bottom box (6) is horizontally placed on the upper edge of the water container (9), and the four sides of the bottom plate (7) of the bottom box are tightly adhered to the water container (9). The integral type mosquito raising device provided by the invention has the advantages of simple structure, convenience for operation and capability of increasing biological safety of a laboratory. The integral type mosquito raising device is suitable for raising common mosquitoes and is particularly is suitable for raising Aedes albopictus.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to equipment for breeding mosquito eggs, larvae, pupae and adults used in scientific research in the field of disease prevention and control, in particular to an integrated mosquito breeding device. Background technique [0002] At present, urban mosquito control work needs to breed mosquitoes for purposes such as mosquito drug efficacy testing, species identification, specimen making, and mosquito control education. The existing breeding method is to raise the mosquito larvae with a water container. After the larvae pupate, the breeder must fish out the pupae every day, place them in a mosquito cage independent of the water container, and wait for them to emerge into adult mosquitoes. After the adult mosquitoes are reared for several days, they suck blood and lay eggs in the mosquito cage. The breeder then takes out the eggs and places them in a water container, where the eggs hatch into larvae. In the above-mentioned operatio...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

It often happens that breeders mistakenly fish out the larvae to affect their normal growth, or the pupae are not completely fished out, causing adult mosquitoes to escape in the breeding room

The sleeves of existing mosquito cages are generally made of opaque cloth, which is not easy to observe and operate. When the breeder takes things from the mosquito cage, it is easy to take the adult mosquito out of the mosquito cage
