Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to insect culture frame technical field, especially insect culture frame of preventing escape. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of scientific research, insect culture frames are widely used in basic research of entomology. For example, in the study of insect physiology, model insects such as fruit flies are cultured to observe their physiological changes during growth and development, such as the process of molting and metamorphosis. In the field of insect genetics, insects can be bred in culture frames to facilitate individual culture after gene editing experiments and observe the impact of gene changes on insect phenotypes. Ecological toxicology research also often uses insect culture frames. Researchers expose insects to environments containing different pollutants (such as heavy metals and pesticides) and observe their survival and reproduction under controlled culture conditions to assess the toxicity of pollutants on insect populations. In the field of agriculture, insect culture frames are used for pest research and control. Agricultural pests such as aphids and locusts can be cultured in culture frames to observe their habits and breeding patterns, allowing for the development of more effective pest control strategies. Meanwhile, natural enemy insects of pests, such as ladybugs and grasshoppers, are also cultured to study their breeding and predation behavior, providing a basis for biological control. In the field of education, insect culture frames are excellent teaching tools. Teachers can culture insects such as silkworms and butterfly larvae in culture frames to allow students to observe the life cycle of insects directly and understand their morphological changes and habits, thereby improving students' interest in learning and understanding of biological knowledge.
