Bessbugs, Living, Pack 12
Large, slow-moving, easy to study
Minimal Care
Ideal learning and fun for students of all ages
This large, intimidating beetle is sure to get your students attention. The bessbug is safe and easy for students to handle. The perfect example of a typical insect, the bessbug has 6 legs and 3 main body segments; head, thorax, and abdomen. Because it's so large, students can study the bessbug without magnifiers. It's easy to care for, too - all you need is some rotting wood.
If you really want your class to get excited about living organisms, try the bessbug Penny-Pull kit. Students will be cheering their bessbug to victory as they try to determine how many washers it can pull.
