One of the main questions that we receive from educators who are participating in the School Malaise Trap Program is \u00ab\u00a0how do I\u00a0discuss the ethics of insect collection and study with my\u00a0students?\u00a0\u00bb This is an excellent question which we are hoping to address during this blog post.<\/p>\n

Upon researching this topic, we came across\u00a0an excellent resource titled \u00ab\u00a0Why We Kill Bugs – The Case For Collecting Insects\u00a0\u00bb by Greg R. Pohl. In his work, Pohl outlines several reasons as to why insect populations are resilient to collecting. Furthermore, he discusses the necessity of collecting insects\u00a0for a range of purposes including taxonomy and diagnostics. He also takes the time to discuss insect conservation, the difference between insects and other animals, and the extensive need for both \u00ab\u00a0amateur\u00a0\u00bb and \u00ab\u00a0professional\u00a0\u00bb insect collectors.<\/p>\n

His work speaks to\u00a0the many ethical questions surrounding the collection and study of insects\u00a0during the School Malaise Trap Program.\u00a0We hope that this paper will assist\u00a0you while facilitating\u00a0this important discussion with your students!<\/p>\n
