The Beetle and Butterfly Collection - A Guide to Collecting, Arranging and Preserving Insects at Home

This is a vintage book, but it has nice illustrations and directions for mounting insects on pins for display. I took entomology in college a half a century ago, and this book was a good refresher course on how to prepare/mount insects. Arrived quickly and was well packaged. Highly recommend. We live in an area with billions and billions of bugs, many of which are agricultural or horticultural pests. We find lots of dead ones, and the grandkids collect representative specimens, which they mount and learn about. Highly recommend.

Love how the book is laid out. Definitely a fun reference!

Looks like it was written in the 19th century. Poor drawings and explanations
