Observing
Bugs
 If
you plan to observe bugs over a period of time, please make sure to
feed them properly. Do not keep them caged any longer then you have
need to.
Here's a few feeding tips:
Ants - drops of honey or bits of raw
meat, apples and bananas.
Grasshoppers - fruit and vegetables
Praying Mantis - fruit flies
Lady Bugs and Beetles
- fruit and boiled potato
Crickets - raw vegetables, fruit, dog
biscuits and crackers
Bees and Butterflies - should be set
free to find flower nectar.
All insects need water. Place a few
drops of water on a leaf, inside the cage, daily. |
