Last month we posted some videos on how to pin insects.

Now we’ve got an excellent article by Ted MacRae on how to pack and ship your insect collection safely.

Besides being an insect collector, Ted is also an excellent photographer and recently did a webinar for members of the Entomological Society of America on macrophotography called “Approaching the Unapproachable: Tips and Tricks for Field Photography of Wary Insects.”
