Large (11x17x2.5") Pupae Bridge

Large Pupae Bridge - Maximum Protection for Your Pupae

Keep your mealworm pupae safe from cannibalistic larvae and beetles with this large 11x17" Pupae Bridge. Made from precision laser-cut 1/8" material, this elevated bridge provides a secure platform for pupae while offering plenty of space below for beetles to roam.

How the Pupae Bridge Works:

Simply insert the bridge into your beetle or larvae tray, collect your pupae, and spread them out on the flat elevated surface. When the beetles emerge, they'll naturally crawl off the bridge and down into the substrate to join the colony - but they can't climb back up to eat the vulnerable pupae!

Why Farmers Choose This Size:

  • Large 11x17" surface holds more pupae
  • Elevated design keeps pupae safe from cannibals
  • Space below attracts beetles away from pupae
  • Extra support beams for added stability
  • Precision laser-cut for perfect fit
  • MDF or acrylic material options
  • Prevents pupae losses from cannibalism

Anti-Climb Protection:
To prevent hungry beetles and larvae from climbing up to the pupae buffet, apply packing tape to the sides of wooden bridge supports. The smooth surface stops them from climbing! Or you can order the acrylic option, with smooth walls that beetles can't climb.

Perfect For:

  • Large mealworm breeding operations
  • Farmers with high pupae production
  • Operations struggling with cannibalism losses
  • Anyone wanting to maximize pupae survival rates

Assembly Notes:
Large bridges include 2 additional optional bottom supports for extra strength. Use wood glue or superglue to attach all pieces for maximum stability and durability.
