Introduction to sericulture: Pinghu silkworm farmers have many traditional customs. Before raising silkworms, you must burn incense and bathe, cleanse your mind and body, wash the silkworm plaque, and disinfect the silkworm room before you start raising silkworms. There is a custom of "dusting silkworms and birds in the three dynasties of Guyu". From the day of dusting birds, it is "Silkworm Moon", commonly known as "Silkworm Gate". There are many taboos on words and deeds, and strangers are strictly prohibited from entering the silkworm treasure. The ban on silkworm cocoons can be lifted after the sale of silkworm cocoons, which is called "the opening of silkworms." At that time, wine and food will be prepared to reward the silkworm god, and relatives and friends will come and visit each other to celebrate. The 12th day of the twelfth lunar month every year is the "Silkworm Flower Day". On this day, silkworm farmers go to the "Xian Silkworm Altar" (a place where the silkworm god worships) or worship the silkworm god at home to pray for a good harvest of silkworm cocoons next year.
