Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of insect breeding and reproduction tools, in particular to a yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bug breeding device which is convenient for feeding and cleaning. Background Art

[0002] The green control technology of "using insects to control insects" by using natural enemies has played a positive role in reducing the use of chemical pesticides, promoting biodiversity conservation and ensuring sustainable agricultural development. The yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bug (Sycanuscroceovittatus), also known as the middle yellow assassin bug, is a predatory natural enemy insect with the characteristics of large prey volume, strong hunger resistance, wide distribution and high adaptability. It has good green control value against many pests such as fall armyworm, armyworm, beet armyworm and armyworm, and has broad application prospects in biological pest control.

[0003] The breeding and propagation of natural enemy insects is the basis for achieving field application and playing an effective role in controlling pests. At present, a variety of predatory stink bugs have been evaluated as new resources and developed new products to ensure green pest control, but basic management work such as feeding and cleaning during artificial breeding and propagation is still a key part that consumes a lot of manual labor and increases breeding costs. In the breeding of yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bugs, we found that they have a large food intake. When they are raised in clusters in gauze insect cages, excrement is easily accumulated on the side walls and bottom of the insect cages, and the excrement will drip into the water container at the bottom of the cage, causing the breeding environment to deteriorate. At the same time, the older nymphs and adults of the yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bugs will drag their prey to a high place to feed when feeding. After feeding, the prey carcasses will also fall into the water container at the bottom of the cage, causing rotting and stinking. Frequent replacement and cleaning of the water container at the bottom of the cage and picking up the prey carcasses are required, which increases the workload of breeding management. In addition, the first-instar nymphs of the yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bug have the ability to prey and need to eat prey to maintain their development. In order to avoid predation damage or anti-predation risks, it is often necessary to provide smaller prey insects, which brings inconvenience to the breeding work. Therefore, a yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bug breeding device that is easy to feed and clean is needed to achieve efficient breeding of yellow-banded rhinoceros assassin bugs, reduce manual labor input, and obtain higher economic benefits.
