Abstract

The objective of the study was to demonstrate the efficiency of the Insect Starter Box (patent) is sustainably viable and reusable on more occasions compared to the two boxes, both the laboratory box (wood) and the commercial box (cardboard).

Resulting as follows: in the cardboard box 100% was discarded after use whether they developed a nest or not, while the wooden boxes were reused 55% after developing a nest and the Insect Starter Box was 100% reused. after developing nest or not and this box could be reused countless times. Therefore, it is concluded that the Insect Starter Box patent is 100% recyclable after developing a nest or not and its reuse is sustainably viable compared to the laboratorio box (wood) and the commercial box (cardboard).
