Insect and Butterfly Habitat Cage Terrarium

This professional portable pop-up house is designed for rearing and breeding butterflies, praying mantis, and other bugs. The professional version of the butterfly enclosure is more square-shaped, sits straight, and does not rock or move. When unfolded, the pavilion measures 15.7 x 15.7 x 23.6 inches.

The butterfly growing kits package includes one Butterfly Habitat Terrarium and a quick start guide manual. Butterflies are not included. Additionally, the package comes with 10 floral tubes, each containing 10ml.

Users should exercise caution when opening the large, tall monarch butterfly tents. After removing the elastic strap from around the circle, the cube cage can pop open unexpectedly, so it's essential to have plenty of space and ensure no breakable objects are nearby.

After opening the net cage, the PVC side will be creased from folding. To remove the creases, users can use a hair dryer to blow-dry the PVC for about 5 minutes or place the PVC towards the warm sun to relax the wrinkles.

It's crucial to always close the cage door so the zippers meet at the top center. If a caterpillar is somewhere on the zipper, this will allow users to zip down the other side to open the cage.

In the event of a disease outbreak or at the end of the season, users should clean the mesh cage 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.

After cleaning, users should rinse the butterfly garden with water and then let it air-dry, either by hanging it on a clothesline or placing a rock on the floor to prevent it from blowing away.

When folding the cage for storage, users should place their hands on opposite upper corners of the cage and press one corner in to fold the cage flat. The cage can then be stored flat in a closet, under a bed, or behind a couch.

The professional version of the monarch butterfly habitat is more square-shaped, sits straight, and does not rock or move. It includes 10 10ml floral tubes for milkweed cuttings and five mesh panels for good airflow. The clear vinyl window panel provides an unforgettable opportunity for students and families to watch caterpillars change into chrysalides and then emerge as beautiful Monarch, Painted Lady, or Black Swallowtail Butterflies.

The collapsible design allows for easy storage and reuse, and the unfolded dimensions of 15.7 x 15.7 x 23.6 inches make it tall and wide enough to hold large 2 milkweed plants. The large zipper side opening makes it easy to feed the butterflies, and then release them into the wild. Butterflies will often land on little hands and faces before flying away.
