Abstract
A movement control method and a spinning position control method for a bagworm is provided, in which a bagworm is led to a predetermined position and allowed to spin a foothold silk thread at the predetermined position. A behavior control method in which a light is radiated to a bagworm to lead the bagworm toward a direction from which the light is radiated, and a spinning position control method in which a light is radiated to a bagworm at a spinning position on a surface of a base material to allow the bagworm to spin at the position are also provided.
Claims18
A method of controlling a behavior of a bagworm, comprising a process of radiating a behavior control light to the bagworm to lead the bagworm toward a direction from which the light is radiated.
A method of controlling a spinning position of a bagworm, comprising a process of radiating a spinning position control light to the bagworm from a predetermined position on a base material to allow the bagworm to spin at the position.
A bagworm silk thread-producing apparatus comprising one or a plurality of light sources that can radiate a spinning position control light from any direction to a base material on which a bagworm is allowed to spin.
