🪴 Basic Caterpillar Rearing Tips:
• Foodplants: Accepts a wide range of hosts including birch, eucalyptus, hawthorn, liquidambar, oak, and willow. Always provide fresh, pesticide-free leaves and replace daily.
• Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity. Light misting is fine, but avoid soggy conditions.
• Housing: Use a ventilated container or mesh cage. Keep clean and dry to prevent mould.
• Growth: Caterpillars grow steadily and will need more space and food as they develop.
• Cocooning: Pupae are spun in loose silk among leaves or twigs. Keep in a cool, dry (but frost-free) space.
Antheraea mylitta is a beautiful, rewarding species to rear – ideal for moth enthusiasts, educational displays, or anyone looking to try something new.
