No more escaping caterpillars! We stock caterpillar castles, a product from the Live Monarch Foundation, USA.
These are awesome! Collapsible, lightweight and durable, they fold almost flat. Washable, you can use 10% bleach solution to sanitise before reuse. Five sides have fine mesh to promote healthy air flow. One clear vinyl full side window for easy viewing of contents. Large protected, zippered opening for easy access. Proven design used to raise thousands of healthy critters.
The fine mesh will stop wasps and other nasty predators. The fabric will wick away moisture fast to keep contents dry.
LARGE castles (33cm x 33cm x 60cm) are a good size for 10-20 caterpillars. Cost is $28 for financial members and $33 for non-members. Postage and packaging is $5 for one or two castles.
JUMBO castles (60cm x 60cm x 90cm) make excellent flight cages – you can leave your butterflies in there (up to 100) with nectar flowers until there is a fine day. $50 for financial members, $55 for non-members. Add $10 for postage and packaging.
