Description
General Product Information
Plastazote polyethylene foam strip is used in preparing double mounts. This fine-celled material holds minuten pins securely and regular insect pins firmly.
A double mount is normally used for very small specimens, too small to pin in the traditional way (ex: micro-moths). The insect is mounted on the minuten, then the minuten is pinned into the double mount. The double mount foam is then attached to a regular pin with a label.

Minuten Pins, Archival Label Paper , and Forceps can be purchased to complete a successful double mounting. This Stellenbosch University Integrated Pest Management video illustrates the proper pinning technique.
