Top 10 Reasons to buy from us

1. We are located in and ship from within the United States
This means you will never need to purchase a Fish and Wildlife permit to buy from us.

Even if you buy just 1 butterfly or insect from any seller that is "outside of the United States"
You are required by law for every shipment into the U.S. to do the following:
1. Be a licensed importer with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
2. Purchase a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Import Permit.
3. Purchase a Cites Permit if needed.
4. After clearing U.S. Customs your items must be presented for inspection to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
If you do not do this every time you are breaking the law and the penalties and fines are stiff.

*Overseas sellers know this but they could care a less because,
"It will be YOU, THAT IS SMUGGLING and it will be YOU, THAT IS FINED when they come to YOUR DOOR".
For more info regarding this you can visit the U.S. fish and wildlife service online.

2. We ship fast and FREE! most items are received within 3 to 4 days from purchase.
Purchasing insects from overseas can take up to two months to receive and always run the risk of
getting stuck in customs or fish and wildlife in which case if permits were not purchased you may never
receive the package just a hefty fine.
 
3. We sell only quality shadowbox displays made by us.
Most framed butterflies and insects sold overseas are cheaply made cardboard or plastic frames
filled with cotton. These may look ok in photos but in person they look really cheap and especially
bad when the poorly prepared insects leave dirt and mold in the cotton.
 
4. We use only American made 99% uv resistant glass in our displays.
This means your butterflies or insects won't fade over time. No other insect display makers
use this museum quality conservation glass which means their framed specimens will start fading immediately.
This glass costs a lot more but we think your investment is worth it (beware of dealers that claim to be uv
resistant if it's not 99% it won't protect your investment)
 
5. We use true acid free archival backing materials in our displays which mean your displays will last a lifetime.
Framed insects purchased overseas do not use these materials.
 
6. We use only A1 quality specimens. 
This means our butterflies will have natural antennae that are fully intact with no rips, tears or stains on the wings.
Our beetles and insects will have all parts intact. Most other sellers usually sell insects well below the A1 grade.
 
7. We spread all of our butterflies and insects to museum standards.
Many insects purchased overseas will be poorly spread.
 
8. We offer a worldwide selection of butterflies and insects from every region in the world.
Overseas sellers usually just offer insects from one region making it hard to ever build a diverse insect or
butterfly collection.
 
9. We offer a full guarantee on all of our framed insect displays.
If your ever not happy with anything for any reason you may return it for a refund or exchange. If you purchase from
an overseas company it may be very difficult, costly or impossible to return something if your not happy with it.
 
10. A gift that you will be proud to give or add to your personal collection.
All of our framed insects are made with skill and years of expertise. We have developed a classic design
that compliments almost any decor. We guarantee that our displays are the finest in the world.

REAL MUSEUM FRAMED BUTTERFLIES, MOTHS AND INSECTS IN CONSERVATION QUALITY DISPLAYS
All of the real exotic butterflies, moths, beetles, spiders and other framed insects used in our museum quality displays have been raised on natural cruelty free tropical farms around the world. These educational farms, aviaries and co-ops provide a real source of income for native people who would otherwise have to sell trees off of their land or raise cattle which are both ecologically disastrous. Tropical butterflies, moths, beetles, spiders and other insects are important members of these fragile ecosystems. If their natural habitats are allowed to disappear, then they to will vanish forever. Everything possible must be done to preserve them.

We are the nations leading wholesale supplier of museum quality handmade educational butterfly art made from real butterflies, moths, beetles, spiders and insects. All of our framed butterflies and insects include an educational and informative leaflet that explains about these real insects and their environment. All of our framed insects are proudly handmade by us in the U.S.A.

We have been hand making our framed insects since 1992. We have a long standing reputation for delivering the highest quality Real framed butterflies and insect displays at very affordable prices. Butterfly and insect collecting has been a popular past time for hundreds of years and we hope that you'll add our real butterfly gifts to your existing collection or start a new one.
