Cocoon Finder

Streamline Your Cocoon Harvest Take the guesswork out of cocoon harvesting! The Cocoon Finder is the ideal tool to quickly identify which reeds are filled with cocoons and which are empty and ready for reuse. How It Works Insert the Cocoon Finder into the open end of a reed. Check for Green: Green visible through the reed? It likely contains cocoons ready for harvesting. No green? The reed is likely empty and reusable for next season. Note: Some reeds may have inner linings that resemble cocoons. To confirm, gently push the Cocoon Finder further into the reed. A hard “stop” indicates either the last cocoon's mud wall or the reed's natural node.
