Here’s how to prepare insects for mailing: Shipping Live Insects 1. Keep insects in a tightly closed container - a jar, pill vial, etc. Don’t punch holes in the cover. There is enough air m a pmt jar to keep several insects alive for days. 2. Keep insects cool but not cold. 3. Keep insects out of direct sunlight. 4. Insects need moisture. One or two fresh green leaves (size of a lima bean leaf) will provide enough moisture in a pint jar. POWER Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 5,1980—G25 identification 5 Give insects something to hang onto - twigs, crumpled paper, paper towel, etc. 6. Provide sufficient padding between the sub mitted specimens and the shipping container Always mark fragile on the outside of your package.

Rub bing alcohol is acceptable if nothing else is available. At least half the contents should be alcohol. Secure all con tainer stoppers before shipping 2. Tiny insects (ants, aphids, etc.) should be shipped m vials of alcohol as described above. 3.

A complete report should include; your name, address and telephone number; the date and place where you collected the specimen; the host plant and area of plant where the specimen was found; a description of the amount and kind of plant injury; and any other special notes. Print all data insert slips using a dark lead pencil or India ink. This will remain readable even in alcohol. Remember, it often makes identification easier if more than one specimen is available.
