Insectarium (Housing for Caterpillars and Other Insects)

Carefully designed as a sturdy, reusable environment for observing the transformation of caterpillars into butterflies, this insectarium can also be used for housing terrestrial invertebrates. Large enough to hold plant material, a water dish or nectar, this home features a rough wooden interior (so newly emerged butterflies can easily climb and hang their wings to dry prior to release), screening on three sides for ventilation, and a sliding plexiglass front for easy access. Made to last from second-growth Eastern white pine, it is perfect for use in the classroom, nature center, or home.
