Trigonotylus caelestialium was successfully bred in the laboratory by feeding on young wheat seedlings in a transparent cylindrical rearing cage (9 cm in diameter, 25 cm in height). Food was renewed 1-3 times during nymphal development. Emergence was about 50% when 100-300 hatched nymphs were introduced into the cage. Some 400 hatched nymphs were obtained when 30-40 female adults with the same number of males were released into the cage and allowed to lay eggs for about 5 days.
