Bean Beetle Culture, Living
The Bean Beetle (Callosobrochus maculatus)
- keeping a live insect culture has never been easier! Our bean beetle arrives on its host bean and requires no additional food or water. Easy to handle, the beetle allows teacher in grade 6 and up to bring inquiry-based study to the classroom. Adult bean beetles live 1 to 2 weeks, so order them when ready to use.
Bean Beetle Care Sheet
Carolina Biological has an excellent care sheet to help you look after your new organism. The link will open a new browser window, so please disable popup blockers.
This easy-to-maintain beetle culture is ideal for use in a variety of reproductive behavior studies. All you need to keep it going generation after generation are beans such as black-eyed peas, mung beans, or adzuki. Females lay a single egg on each bean. The emerging larva then burrows into the bean where it will feed, pupate, and then emerge as an adult beetle.
Adults do not require any food or water - they spend their short life span of 1 to 2 weeks mating and laying eggs. Design your own experiments or use the Experiments with Bean Beetles (item #144184) guide sold separately.
Culture contains 30 to 40 mixed adults set up on host beans.
