How to make a butterfly cage

This is the simple plastic container. It is made from a plastic tote and chicken wire. It is very easy to make.You cut a circle in the middle of the lid and then you hot glue the chicken wire over it.

This is the shoe box cage. You basically just need to cut a big rectangle on the lid and hot glue chicken wire over that. This way the caterpillars/butterflies stay in and they can hang from the wire.

This is the bottle/jar cage. All you do is poke some thick holes on the lid or you could just put chicken wire on the top of it and tie it on someway.

This is the bucket container. You basically just put chicken wire over the top but let it hang over the sides a little bit. Then you put a rubber band around it to keep it not only shut but secure.

After you make your cage you can check out my other guide called"How to raise caterpillars into butterflies."
