The captive-bred adult worms can be reared for more than 3 months in a controlled environment, while wild individuals can be reared for a shorter period of time, but they can generally survive for 1 month. The basic equipment for rearing is the same as that of stag beetles, but the damage ability of stag beetles is lower, and a little more individuals can be reared in the rearing tank at the same time. The recommended breeding box is a 3-foot tank, with 10 of humus at the bottom, 2 to 5 branches with a diameter of about 10, some of which are placed upright, the rest can be placed diagonally, and the top of the branches is about 10 inches away from the box cover. ? for it to climb. 2~3 flat stones are scattered on the subsoil for placing bait.
