If your doing a class project/at home what you'd really want is have a run way. make sure your darkling beetles have friends to! Darkling beetles got their name because they are relaxed in dark, secretive corners, so give them that! They also eat decaying leaves, rotting wood, etc. If you have a runway or any other shelter, if your darkling beetles start climbing up--don't worry, they won't jump out! I've done a class project on darkling beetles before and they are very interesting animals and use their anntenae a lot. They are nocturanl animals, so do not move much in the day. If you want to learn more info about darkling beetles habitat/food then you can:
Search on Google: Darkling Beetles
Next, click on Darkling Beetle/Mealworm Information. It's the first choice.
Have fun!

All insects are ectothermic (coldblooded).
Are darkling beetles bad?
If you are a poultry grower then yes, darkling beetles are very bad. A darkling beetle infestation will cause damage to the poultry house itself(they eat/bore holes in insulation), as well as eat feed(reduces your feed conversion rate). Darkling beetles will also actively seek out water in the poultry house. If they cannot find any, the beetles will make their way to the chicken and chew at the base of the feather where there is some moisture. This can lead to infection, and the spreading of bacteria. Poultry will also consume Darkling Beetles. This can lead to intestinal problems(packing of the gut) for the poultry. Overall, a very nasty pest!
