Insects, they’re everywhere! The Insecta Inspecta team investigates termites, ants, bees, butterflies, beetles, fleasand many other insects with great scientific accuracy. The connections between history, science and art are clever.Comic bug cartoons sprinkled throughout the site offer unexpected entertainment along with genuinely well researched entomology.
