Forensic Entomology: Nature’s Clean-Up Crew

October 3, 2023 @ 6:30 pm

(713) 639-4629

Get to know the hardworking insects and types of arthropods which keep our world clean–Nature’s very own clean-up crew. Without this hardworking army of insects, bacteria, fungi, and other animals, Earth would be a much different place!
Meet the important consumers vital to our ecosystem’s balance–decomposers, scavengers, and detritivores. Then, uncover the secrets of decomposition, while investigating how decomposers help forensic scientists break down crime scenes. Find out why dung beetles rock (and roll), learn why cockroaches are awesome, and paint with magnificent maggots!

All supplies are included.
