Essentials for a thriving colony
Three key elements contribute to a healthy and active dermestid beetle colony. First, maintain a warm environment, ideally between 70-80°F (21-27°C). Second, ensure a consistent supply of protein-rich food sources, such as dried meat scraps or bone fragments. Lastly, house your beetles in a secure, well-ventilated container to prevent escapes and maintain air quality. Following these steps will promote a thriving colony for efficient skull cleaning.
