About this Event

Did you know only about 1% of the world insect population is considered “harmful” according to the USDA? Most are beneficial or considered harmless. We’ll explore our “backyards” and learn the facts about the insects we encounter. You see a side of nature that’s intriguing, and pretty amazing. You may even leave, “loving bugs”.
