Nematode Infestation
🔎 按症状查找
关于这种疾病
Occurrence of nematodes in the substrate or on the surface of captive beetles. While many nematode species assist in organic matter decomposition, heavy infestations or certain species may negatively affect the beetle's health.
主要症状
- Numerous thin white or transparent thread-like organisms are visible throughout the substrate
- Nematodes are attached to the beetle's body surface, especially between abdominal segments
- The adult beetle moves restlessly around the enclosure
- Loss of appetite or reduced activity may be observed
主要原因
- Rapid multiplication of nematodes already present in leaf compost or fermented substrate
- Rapid nematode reproduction driven by high temperature and humidity in the enclosure
- Poor ventilation causing stagnant, humid conditions inside the enclosure
- Introduction of nematodes via wild-caught individuals or collected outdoor materials
预防（饲养环境与日常护理）
Use high-quality commercially prepared fermented substrate and select sealed packaging. Maintain adequate ventilation in the enclosure to prevent excessive heat and humidity. Regularly check that the substrate is not overly wet and prevent condensation buildup. Avoid using unprocessed outdoor materials such as collected leaves or soil of unknown origin.

Consulting an insect specialty shop or breeder is the most practical approach for obtaining advice on heavy nematode infestations. Specialist guidance on substrate selection and improvements to temperature and humidity management is particularly valuable.
