Larvae are taken alive to be boiled and then roasted or simply centrifuged. Moths (female) are opened up for checking about diseases right after eggs are laid by them for next generation process. Generally customers are away from the cruelty aligned in the production process. However, there are other better, eco-friendly, sustained and non-violent methods too that can also be used for this process, though the society is not moving ahead to adopt them as yet.
Silkworm rearing is of tow types, mulberry and non-mulberry. Both are labor intensive industry. Mulberry is a kind of multiple tree. Fine wood is produced from it which results in the development of fruits and basketry that is edible and can produce wine. The leaves of this tree are fed to the silkworm. Non-mulberry, also known as wild silkworm includes muga, eri and tassar. Muga silkworms are available in Assam only and feed on ‘soalu’ and ‘som’ that produces a lustrous yellow colored strong and attractive silk.
