     工蚁体长: 约3.5毫米。

2. Suitable Temperature and Humidity (适宜的温度、湿度):

   • Temperature: Prefers a temperature range of 24-28°C.
     温度: 适宜温度范围为24-28摄氏度。
   • Humidity: Requires moderate to high humidity levels, around 65-75%.
     湿度: 需要中到高湿度水平，约65-75%。

3. Nesting Recommendations (巢室推荐):

   • Nest Type: Prefers subterranean nests with multiple chambers and tunnels.
     巢型: 偏好地下巢穴，具有多个巢室和隧道。
   • Environment: Should be kept in a substrate that mimics their natural soil habitat, such as a mixture of sand and loam.
     环境: 应保存在模拟其自然土壤栖息地的基质中，如沙土与壤土的混合物。

4. Food Sources (食物来源):

   • Diet: Carnivorous; feeds on small insects, spiders, and other arthropods.
     饮食: 肉食性；以小型昆虫、蜘蛛和其他节肢动物为食。

     补充喂食: 可以用高蛋白质来源如黄粉虫、蟋蟀或果蝇进行补充。

5. Other Maintenance Tips (其他饲养建议):

   • Temperature Control: Maintain the ambient temperature consistently within the preferred range using heaters or cooling systems as necessary.
     温度控制: 根据需要使用加热器或冷却系统，确保环境温度稳定保持在适宜范围内。
   • Humidity Maintenance: Regularly mist the habitat to maintain high humidity levels, especially in drier climates.
     湿度维持: 定期为栖息地喷水以保持高湿度，特别是在较干燥的环境中。
   • Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation to prevent mold growth while maintaining necessary humidity levels.
     通风: 提供充足的通风以防止霉菌生长，同时保持必要的湿度水平。
   • Safety: Handle with care as Odontoponera denticulata may exhibit aggressive behavior and can deliver a painful bite.
     安全: 小心处理，因为齿唇齿猛蚁可能表现出攻击性，并能进行痛苦的咬合。
