BugDorm-4S4545 insect cage is very easy to assemble by simply connecting poles with connectors. The front panel of BugDorm-4S4545 insect rearing cage is of clear plastic for observing insect activity; the top and three side panels are of fine Polyester netting (96 x 26 mesh) for ventilation. There is a 18-cm sleeve opening in the front panel for addition or removal of insects and for replacement of food material. A thin strip is sewn across the ceiling from which to suspend objects such as feeders.
The framework of BugDorm-4S4545 insect cage is of lightweight fiberglass and constructed outside the enclosure. There are no places for insects to hide inside the cage.
