When we set up our Malaise trap I was really excited. I want to see what bugs live here. I think it would be good to see what bugs live here because we can see if any bugs help make medicine. We set it up in front of our school garden because bugs go near gardens. I think we will attract a lot of bees because bees collect pollen. I think we will get flies and gnats too. We might get a dragonfly because I have seen some dragonflies at recess. I wonder if temperature changes if any bugs come. I think we would have a lot of bugs but we have a lot of small bugs. – J.

Forest Ave. Considers Location
Our bottle has filled up quite a bit since yesterday. It’s now up to the first mark! Most other schools have a more buggy area. Our school is close to Lake Ontario. Maybe our school will have different results than Erin Mills (also in Mississauga). What do you think? Maybe tomorrow will be very buggy. It might even raise another line! – M. (gr4)
Forest Avenue – Week One Completed!
Our school made it up to the first line. It is so cool! When you look at the trap it looks like a shadow for the bugs. Since it’s a hot day the bugs go up to the hole ! – H. (gr4)
