The butterfly growing kits package includes the following: 1. Outdoor Version Butterfly Habitat Terrarium 2. Quick start guide manual

To assemble the outdoor version butterfly habitat, follow these instructions: 1. Hammer the PVC pole together and ensure that the poles are connected completely. Follow the instructions or the assemble guide in the Gallery to install the outdoor version butterfly habitat. 2. After opening the net cage, the PVC side may be creased from folding. Quickly remove the creases by blow-drying the PVC with a hair dryer for about 5 minutes, or by placing the PVC towards the warm sun to relax the wrinkles. 3. Always close the cage door so the zippers meet at the TOP CENTER. If a caterpillar is somewhere on the zipper, this will allow you to zip down the other side to open. 4. Clean the mesh cage after a disease outbreak or at the end of the season by soaking it in a 5% bleach solution (19 parts water to 1 part bleach) for about 20 minutes. The cage can be soaked in a tub or laundry tub. 5. Rinse your butterfly garden with water and then let it sun dry- hang it on a clothesline or put a rock on the floor so it won't blow away. 6. Store the outdoor version butterfly habitat in a dry and clean place, such as in a closet, behind a couch, etc.

The PVC Outdoor monarch butterfly cage is weather, predation, tear, and parasitoid resistant. The nylon fabric is much stronger than conventional popup cage netting. The caterpillar habitat consists of a durable PVC frame that is quickly assembled using the included pole connectors, with a mesh tent fitting onto this frame to create an enclosed cage suitable for the rearing and maintenance of caterpillars.

The butterfly cage, when unfolded, measures 23.6" x 23.6" x 78.7". This tall and wide enclosure can hold 4 large milkweed plant pots, and the mesh tent threads onto the frame to form a self-contained enclosure large enough for butterflies, insects, and other bugs to be reared and maintained safely.

The mesh panels provide good airflow, and the fine mesh enclosure is soft and breathable. The clear vinyl window panel offers students and families an unforgettable opportunity to watch caterpillars change into chrysalides and then emerge as beautiful Monarch, Painted Lady, or Black Swallowtail Butterflies.

The large opening door with double zippers allows easy access to feed the butterflies, and the butterflies can then be released into the wild. The butterflies will often land on little hands and faces before flying away.
