MY STORY________________________________________
I am a conservation biologist who creates museum quality framed insects that hope to instill some sense of wonder about the natural world. After working in various entomology departments throughout the world, I decided to create my own educational insect displays in order to follow my passion, educate others, and showcase the amazing creatures I love.
TRUE MUSEUM QUALITY DISPLAYS_____________________________
* Sealed (most insect displays are not).
* Made with archival materials.
* No dangerous fumigants.
* Comes with educational material related to the insect in the display.
Be careful of the allure of low quality inexpensive insect displays because they will not last.
