Busy bees wanted on this insect investigation! Shrink down and meet some insect friends with entomologist Antonia Guidotti. Learn all about the insects native to Ontario, why these critters are vital to our ecosystem, and how insect anatomy is different from humans. Unravel the confusion around the “killer bee crisis” and colossal cicada swarms, get to the bottom of Ontario’s creepy-crawly caterpillar infestation, and make sense of the marvellous monarch migration. Then, try your hand at making egg-carton insects or build an insect hotel and see what friends make it their home.
