I have been using floral tubes for the past 2 years and have found them to be very handy for keeping milkweed fresh and keeping the caterpillars up off the floor of the cage. Also like the snug tube cap which has eliminated any unfortunate "drownings".

2020/21 was my first season raising Monarch Butterflies and Milkweed. It was such an amazing experience especially raising them from egg to butterfly. I grew them in big glass pickle jars, putting new milkweed in the jars everyday when they were caterpillars because the milkweed would get eaten or wilt very fast. I put netting over the top of the jars with a rubber band to hold it on. Next year I wanted to go to a bigger Monarch breeding space and the tubes will be perfect to hold the milkweed and keep it alive. I'm looking forward to using the tubes. Wish me luck!

I just recently purchased these and have not had the opportunity to use them. However, I am really looking forward to spring so I can use them!!

Too large to get through the door to outside

I'm really looking forward to trying this next season.

This cage works so well for raising our monarchs. It has plenty of room for cuttings and bug movement and the large door makes moving things around easy. Love how easy it is to clean ( in the shower) at the end of the season.

We were going to replace our yucky big cube and downsize but decided to use the baby cube as a nursery for baby caterpillars then transfer them to the large cube. After many cleanings the large cube developed a hole so we purchased another to replace that.

I love my new fat cat floral tubes?!
They allow me to just take a branch or leaf from of my outside garden, bring them in sterilize them and then put them in my cage I've had a lot of success and it's fun to watch the eggs hatch and then be able to put them on bigger plants to munch, grow Chrysalis and become beautiful butterflies and I can release into the wilderness in my backyard!!

These are great! This was my first year raising monarchs and the racks and tubes made the adventure a success!

Works great.

100% designed for success!
Be sure to buy both types of lids - small & large holes - you will be glad you did.

Quick and easy read. Very informative with lots of good visuals.

Very informative book. Glad I purchased.

Love these! They hold plenty of water which is important here in Arizona for cuttings. Once the short peg racks were back in stock I ordered several. Great combination and a game changer in caring for caterpillars!

Fit well in the cage and was easy to clean
