Insect and Butterfly Habitat Cage Terrarium - 12 x 14 Inches Tall

Trasfit Pop-up Insect and Butterfly Habitat Product Description

The Trasfit Pop-up Insect and Butterfly Habitat is a must-have for anyone ready to raise monarch butterflies. Designed for raising butterflies and protecting butterfly eggs, caterpillars, and chrysalises, this habitat is essential for ensuring the safety and comfort of your butterflies.

This fine mesh enclosure provides a soft and breathable environment for your caterpillars, increasing their chances of survival by protecting them from predators. The caterpillars will eat milkweed until they are full and then form green chrysalises on the top inside of the terrarium. 7 to 10 days later, beautiful new butterflies will emerge, providing a thrilling experience when releasing them back into the world. This is a wonderful family project to do with children, as the process is amazing to watch and the caterpillars do not bite.

In addition to milkweed, you can also place parsley, rue, and a vine branch spiraling around inside to make the habitat look more natural. Rubbing some dry bar soap on the open teeth of the zipper tracks will make it easier to operate, and placing plastic lids under the pots and newsprint on the bottom will make cleanup a snap.

The butterfly house features five mesh panels that provide good airflow, creating a safe and comfortable environment for your butterflies. The large zipper opening allows for easy access to the terrarium so you can easily feed your butterflies. Additionally, the collapsible design allows for easy storage and reusability. When unfolded, the insect cage measures 12-in x 12-in x 14-inch, providing enough space for new butterflies to fly without breaking their wings. The compact pop-up design folds almost flat, making it easy to fit into a backpack and ideal for field work. The handle on top of the insect terrarium makes it easy to carry or store, making it perfect for raising butterflies.
