I have been interested in bugs ever since I was a little girl when I found a large colony of sow bugs in the garden.
As a child, I wasn't afraid of anything that crawled, hopped,swam or was slimey. I would pick up anything. Living in
Virginia was a hoot because I would love to go out at night and watch the lightening bugs, catch them and put them in
a jar to look at. Problem was I forgot to put holes in the lid
My interests have varied over the years. Mantids, Madagascar hissers, now its Rhino beetles. I am raising a Dynastis
Granti larvae, and am planning to get more to raise. I also want to get D. tityus to raise also.
I was not interested in going to college, but have told people in my later years that I should have studied to
be an entemologist, because my interest has never wavered. Thank you for letting me a member of this forum.
I hope I can contribute in some way.
