Gosga365 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 So I have a few questions. I discovered an area near me with lots of fallen, rotting oak trees. I gathered up a large bag of soil and wood that crumbled apart easily. Is moving this with boiling water enough treatment to make it usable for rhino beetle larvae? I am also looking to find some wild D. Tityus larvae in the same area. Has anyone had success with this in the past? What should I do to find them? My last question is how often should I feed adult beetles? I have some jellies and can get fruit for them as well, I just wasnt sure if they should be fed every day or less often. Thank you all for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugboy3092 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Yes, and the best way to look for them is to excavate tree holes, I’ve found zero under rotten logs, but quite a few in the holes. Finally, always make sure that the adults have food, they could want to eat at any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
