- Friday, July 11, 2008 Insect Collection Kit, Advanced Reviewed By: Gail Battles The kit is great. My five year old wants to be an Entymologist and absolutely loves the kit. I can't get the Butterfly net out of his hands.
- Thursday, May 01, 2008 Excellent product Reviewed By: Bryan Penfound Everything that the beginner insect collector needs! Fantastic product. The guides are good for amateurs, but the more experienced insect collector will want a field guide. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase. :)
- Thursday, October 18, 2007 We were BEGINNERS
We are very beginner insect collectors. All of the pieces in this kit were great, but we could have used more information on how to properly pin insects - specifically butterflies. We had to research elsewhere for the info.
