Abstract

Dermestes carnivorus found in a warehouse was reared in a laboratory. The adults preferred a moist dog food VITA WAN BEAF JERKIE® to a dry dog food VITA WAN®. When provided with the dry food, adults and larvae needed water supply for their survival, normal growth, and egg production. They took water directly from cotton soaked with water. When supplied with the dry food and water, the duration of the egg stage was 4-6 days at 25℃ and 12L-12D. The larval stage and the pupal stage lasted for 37-44 days and for 6-9 days, respectively under the summer room conditions. Measurements of the head width of the larvae indicated six instar stages of them. The duration of the 6th instar stage was 18 days including the prepupal period of seven days.
