Field Collecting Supplies

Field insect collecting supplies are an important part of collecting insects for your school collection. In fact, you will learn much more if you collect your own insects for your school insect project. You can refer to www.BugCollectors.com for instruction on where to find insects in the field, how to catch insects and how to pin and preserve them.

We offer a large variety of field insect collecting supplies. The insect collecting supplies you see here are supplies that I use on a regular basis. The telescoping aerial insect collecting net is made special for Insects4Sale.com. I had the manufacturer increase the depth of the net to just the right length. The net is not so long that it is difficult to get you insect catch out and not so short that you can’t flip it over the hoop to keep your insect from escaping. The field insect microscope is great for field inspection and identification.
