☀️SUMMER IS HERE☀️

Semesters are wrapped up, field work is in full swing, and the insects are out which means summer is finally here! Of course, when there is more insect collection, the Ecology Supplies Team is busier than ever trying to get out all of your orders! We have also been working hard with many of our testers to get valuable feedback on products coming down the pipeline later this year. Thank you to the members of The Ecology Supplies Testing Lab! We are excited to soon be able to show off what we have been working on! 

June arrivals include: 12 Drawer Cornell Steel Cabinet, Aquatic D Ring and Handle, Hog Ring Pliers and Hog rings (Replacement Pack), Young Entomologist Outdoor Kit, SLAM Trap, and Flight Interception Traps.

Items returning this month include: Vacuum Aspirators, Hinge Cap Vials, Standard Net Bags (all sizes), Open Faced Wooden Cabinet (Now in Gray), Beating Sheets, LED Black Lights, Metal Telescopic Net Ring, and Light Tents.

💡 As always, if there are any supplies or equipment that you are having trouble sourcing, please reach out so we can add it to our list of production plans! We want to hear from you! 💡

We hope you are all enjoying the warmer weather and a chance to get outside the office, classroom, or lab.
