BugFest - Sponsored by Central Termite and The Bug Man


Did you know that insects are found in nearly all environments on the planet and play a crucial role in human lives? Come to BugFest 2009 - sponsored by Central Termite and The Bug Man - coming up April 22-25 at the Museum and discover more facts about our creepy crawly friends!!


Exhibits throughout the Museum will highlight insects' habitats, behavior and life cycles. Educators will teach about the important relationship of insects, plants and humans as they answer all your creepy-crawly questions and share facts about some of the world's most interesting bugs.


My personal favorite? We have a very special race, where visitors can cheer on their favorite cockroach at "The Great Hissing Cockroach Races," held in the Discovery Court. Over 3,500 species of cockroaches exist worldwide and they are capable of living over a month without food. Learn more about cockroaches, beetles, bees and more. Sounds like fun!


Plan on attending BugFest 2009, sponsored by Central Termite and The Bug Man. We'd love to hear your comments if you did make it!
