Rearing of spider (Neoscona spp.)
Egg mass or gravid Neoscona female reared in jar for hatching and/or for egg lying. The spider lings emerge after hatching are very soft and do not require food for first day. 2nd day onwards till the 3rd instars they usually feed on the prey. For feeding living Corcyra moth by making it wingless, 3-small hoppers (nymph) or 3-housefy (adult or maggots) or small soft bodied insect pests (sedentary) of different crops can be given to spider lings. After 3rd in stars a few male and female may be collected from the batch for nucleus culture for further rearing and the remaining may be released. It is better if the spider lings at the 3rd in stars are released in the field. From the nucleus culture one male and one female are kept in a jar for mating.
