Biography:

Hello I just found this website and was fascinated. I started getting really interested in bugs when my daughter started to like digging for worms with mom. The first bug I got really curious about was the earwig mostly cuz of those nasty pinchers but shortly after I really loved catching and observing spiders. what amazing little things. The longer I looked at and read about bugs the more empathetic I became toward them. I used to just kill them on the spot out of fear but have learnes much more now. I'm 37 and never expected I'd be so interested in such a thing when I got home older.
