Ways to save cups
- Move beetles every 2 weeks instead of every week.
- Only do 2 or 3 beetle moves, then stop.
- When all mealworms are pupas, the mealworm cup is empty, so the beetles can move in there.
- Combine egg cups once the babies are about a month old, then rinse and reuse the empty cups.
