Problems solved by technology

This method needs to hang lamps, set up pots, transfer termite winged adults, observe and chase paired ants, and then catch them in a breeding container. There are many steps, time-consuming and laborious, and they must be collected in time after the trapping is completed. Medium termites have been artificially transferred many times, which can easily cause damage to winged adults and lead to breeding failure, and termites are easy to escape, difficult to handle, and difficult for unskilled people to operate. The adult termites that have been paired are scattered and re-paired, which may also affect the paired reproduction

Embodiment 1

[0023] Test time: the evening of May 3, 2018, test location: Sun Yat-sen University, Haizhu District, Guangzhou

[0024] The method for collecting winged adult termites in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0025] (1) Take 43 kraft paper tubes with an inner diameter of 3mm, a wall thickness of 0.3mm, and a length of 6cm, and arrange them neatly. Use a sealing glue to stick a circle along the side wall of the paper tube roll to make the paper tube hole exposed. A total of 8 paper tubes are prepared for the paper tube wrapped by wall-paper;

[0026] (2) Before the termites fly, the paper tube prepared in step (1) is fully wetted to a state where the inner wall of the paper tube is wet but no water droplets, and the wetted paper tube is placed under a street lamp where the termites fly separately. Place the paper tube near the wall of the object, and place 2 paper tubes under each street lamp where termites fly;

[0027] (3) Collect the paper tube in the early morning of th...

[0029] Test time: the evening of May 12, 2018, test location: Sun Yat-sen University, Haizhu District, Guangzhou

[0030] The method for collecting winged adult termites in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0031] (1) Take 43 kraft paper tubes with an inner diameter of 3mm, a wall thickness of 0.3mm, and a length of 6cm, and arrange them neatly. Use a sealing glue to stick a circle along the side wall of the paper tube roll to make the paper tube hole exposed. A total of 12 paper tubes are prepared for the paper tube wrapped by wall-paper;

[0032] (2) Before the termites fly, the paper tube prepared in step (1) is fully wetted to a state where the inner wall of the paper tube is wet but no water droplets, and the wetted paper tube is placed under a street lamp where the termites fly separately. Place the paper tube near the wall of the object, and place 4 paper tubes under each street lamp where termites fly;

[0033] (3) Collect the paper tube in the early morning of ...

Embodiment 3

[0035] Test time: the evening of May 15, 2018, test location: Sun Yat-sen University, Haizhu District, Guangzhou

[0036] The method for collecting winged adult termites in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0037] (1) Take 35 kraft paper tubes with an inner diameter of 2mm, a wall thickness of 0.6mm, and a length of 10cm, and arrange them neatly. Use a sealing glue to stick a circle along the side wall of the paper tube roll to make the paper tube hole exposed. A total of 14 paper tubes are prepared for the paper tube wrapped by wall-paper;

[0038] (2) Before the termites fly, the paper tube prepared in step (1) is fully wetted to a state where the inner wall of the paper tube is wet but no water droplets, and the wetted paper tube is buried laterally next to the street lamp where the termites fly In the soil under the tree, make the lower part of the paper tube 10mm buried in the soil, the upper part is exposed, the upper part of the paper tube is covered with soil b...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for collecting winged adult termites. The method comprises the following steps: arranging kraft paper tubes neatly, making the paper tubes into paper barrels of whichthe openings of the paper tubes are exposed and gummed paper wraps the side walls or making the paper tubes into paper barrels of which the openings of one sides of the paper tubes are exposed, the openings of the other sides of the paper tubes are sealed and gummed paper wraps the side walls; then fully wetting the paper barrels before the termites fly, placing the paper barrels in soil under trees beside street lamps around wheel the termites fly or placing the paper barrels on sides of walls of buildings, and enabling the paper barrels to be close to tree trunks or wall sides, wherein 2-6 paper barrels are placed under each street lamp around which the termites fly; after flying of the termites is finished, collecting the paper barrels, and directly feeding the paper tubes with paired winged adult termites in a feeding container. The provided method is simple and speedy to operate, a large number of winged adult termites can be collected, injury of adult termites in a collecting process is avoided completely, the pairing success rate is greatly increased, materials are taken conveniently, and the cost is low.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of insect breeding, and specifically relates to a method for collecting winged adults of termites. Background technique: [0002] Termites are an ancient social insect. Since ancient times, people have long recognized the edible and medicinal value of termites. Records show that there was a habit of making ant paste as an imperial meal in our country more than 3000 years ago (Animals). Some ethnic minorities in Yunnan still have the custom of eating termites. The medicinal value of termites has been recorded in medical books of all dynasties. For example, Li Shizhen’s Compendium of Materia Medica in the Ming Dynasty once stated: “Termite mud is used to treat malignant sores, swelling, and poison. "The development of termites as an insect resource has very broad application prospects. However, searching and collecting termites directly in the wild is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the amount of ants collected i...
