They usually live in hilly areas, low mountain areas with sandy soil, fields, and grassy areas along roadsides. They can also be found under piles of firewood, decaying wood, rubble, stones, or in dark and damp corners near kitchens. During the day, they hide from light inside their nests, resting until around 8 PM when they come out to move around, forage for food, and mate. The peak activity period for centipedes is between 8 PM and 12 midnight.
Huangshi Xisai Centipede Breeding Base? Xisai District's last agricultural science and technology centipede breeding farm raises centipedes, also known as heavenly dragons or hundred-foot bugs. These creatures are warm in nature, pungent in flavor, and toxic. They have functions such as calming wind and relieving pain, attacking toxins and dispersing nodules, stopping spasms and alleviating pain, and combating cancer. They are mainly used to treat hemiplegia, tetanus, bone tuberculosis, scrofula, snake bites, infantile convulsions, stroke, and other conditions. Modern research shows that centipedes mainly contain histamine, hemolytic protein, various amino acids, fatty amines, and cholesterol. In addition, they also contain orange pigments and pale blue-green pigments, among others. Centipede venom has a primary hemolytic effect on the central nervous system of rats, with nicotine-like properties that block acetylcholine. It can cause necrosis and disappearance of spermatogenic cells in mice, indicating an inhibitory effect on tumor cells. In recent years, it has shown good efficacy in treating digestive system tumors and cancers. Centipedes are also the main ingredients in traditional Chinese medicines such as snakebite tablets, detoxifying ointment, and wind-dispelling and blood-circulating pills. Therefore, centipedes are indispensable among animal-based medicinal materials, and their medicinal value is highly regarded by medical experts both domestically and internationally.
Huangshi Xisai Centipede Breeding Base? Xisai District's last agricultural science and technology centipede breeding farm raises adult centipedes approximately 12 cm long and 0.5-1.1 cm wide, slightly flattened dorsally and ventrally. Their head plates are nearly circular, with a protruding front end. The head plate and the first dorsal plate are golden yellow, hence they are also called golden-headed centipedes. They are distributed throughout China, both north and south, with wild populations mainly found in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River region.
Centipedes are omnivorous animals that feed on various insects, animal organs, vegetables, fruits, and kitchen leftovers.
According to "Changguo Dian Yong," people in Molixin Ridge used to cultivate centipedes as crops for use in pharmacies, indicating that this practice has been around for a long time. However, there is no mention of anyone doing so today.
Molixin Ridge is located within Zhejiang's Daishan area and is famous for its abundance of medicinal centipedes. Locals engaged in the business of medicinal centipedes, managing suitable habitats for them, protecting their populations, and improving their growth environments by providing additional food. After harvesting, they would sell the centipedes to medicine merchants for income, showing that there were people involved in medicinal centipede farming in ancient China.
Supported by Huazhong Agricultural University: A key university in the national "211 Project," Huazhong Agricultural University collaborates with Wuhan Agri-Science Humin Bioengineering Co., Ltd., to jointly research and promote scientific agriculture and enrich farmers through the centipede breeding technology known as Humin No. 2 Golden Headed Centipede.
Advanced Technology Advantage: Wuhan Agri-Science Humin Bioengineering Co., Ltd., together with several biological experts and professors of bioengineering from Huazhong Agricultural University, have cultivated a new generation of centipedes named Humin No. 2 Golden Headed Centipede through many years of breeding observation and purification techniques using biogenetic engineering. Observations show that this breed is easy to raise, gentle in nature, adaptable, grows quickly, reproduces at a high rate, and has better medicinal value and more significant economic value, making it an ideal investment breeding project for many breeders.
Complete breeding facilities: Relying on agricultural science as an advantage and life sciences as a feature, the company depends on experts and scholars from the College of Animal Science and Technology. With modern bioengineering, special breeding, and insect resource development at its core, it is a high-tech enterprise integrating research, breeding, teaching, promotion, technical services, production, sales, and import-export trade. It owns large-scale ecological breeding areas, solar greenhouse breeding areas, greenhouse breeding areas, and has set up technical training centers, seedling cultivation centers, germplasm rooms, incubation rooms, gene transformation rooms, etc., with excellent infrastructure and a complete system.
Wuhan Agri-Science Humin Company: Upholding the tradition of diligent study and hard work, our company is committed to promoting the industrialization of centipede resources with the aim of scientific agriculture.
