BugDorm-4E4545 insect cage is very easy to assemble by simply connecting poles with connectors.  The BugDorm-4E4545 insect rearing cage has Nylon netting (150 x 150 mesh) all around, using no plastic sheet in any of the panels except the floor for better ventilation. There is a 18-cm sleeve opening in the front panel for addition or removal of insects and for replacement of food material.  A thin strip is sewn across the ceiling from which to suspend objects such as feeders.

The framework of BugDorm-4E4545 insect cage is of lightweight fiberglass and constructed outside the enclosure.  There are no places for insects to hide inside the cage.
