en·to·mol·o·gy - the scientific study of insects
Some call them pests, and in some cases for good reason. But in the grand scheme of things they're a vital part of the delicate balance of nature. And here's our select list of sites that will help you learn a little more about those ominous but valuable pests. We call it the Bug Report.

If you only have time to visit one of the sites referenced on this page,
then this is the one. After researching and assembling the list below,
we found Bugbios.com. It includes some of the links on this page and
