A person can keep cicadas as pets by storing them in a large aquarium, feeding them regularly, and providing a source of heat. They will naturally breed which allows for many generations to be born and thrive in this small environment.

Of course you can! Lots of people and kids keep whats called an 'insect zoo''. You can keep lots of bugs in your zoo at home. These are some insects that make good pets: crickets, grasshoppers, ladybugs, rollie polly bugs, praying mantises, ants, and caterpillars. Make sure you feed them the right food, and keep them in jars. Hope that helps.

Can you keep Cicada as a pet?

I advise not to keep a caterpillar as a pet! They die very easily and surprisingly it needs much care. However if you do keep a caterpillar as a pet feed it plenty of fresh green leaves. If you do not notice your caterpillar has not eaten the leaves try a different kind; they do not eat every type of plant. Give it plenty of roaming areas and sticks to climb on. Make sure you are prepared for it to turn into a moth/butterfly! Mist it's housing with water very often [but not enough to drown it ;)] Do not handle it because they can often give away rashes. Make sure you are aware of your caterpillar's needs for it's specific type. I advise you look for it's kind on the Internet and learn about it's specific care needs, although I do not advise one as a pet! You may also lose interest in it very quickly! Hope this helps!


How do you keep a caterpillar as a pet?

Well, first of all you need to know if it is a baby or not! If you bring it home or keep it in your garden and then the next day you find out it's turned into a butterfly than there was no point! DON'T put it in a box that has a lid because the caterpillar wouldn't like it. Try and make it feel comfortable as if it was in it's actual habitat. Hope this helps! If it doesn't than sorry.
