The School Malaise Trap Program runs during the spring and fall of each year. Each participating school receives a program package, educational materials, and a Malaise trap to collect insects in their schoolyard for a specified two week period. The specimens are sent back to the Centre for Biodiversity Genomics (CBG) at the University of Guelph and, after they are analyzed, a results package consisting of an individual site report, a species list and a species image library is sent to each school.
