The Warriors of St. Michael are set to go! Hoping that the snow stays away for the next while and we will actually collect some insects…..a year ago we were under 30cm of the white stuff!

Brooksbank in North Vancouver, BC is ready!
We received our shipping box, and will go over the materials and videos this coming week. Lots to learn! Thinking about the particular site we’ll use… maybe forest, maybe open field. We’ll assemble and disassemble the trap this week as a dry run so we’ll be all set for the Sept 21 start of actual collecting. Looking forward to it!
Belleisle Regional High
Our trap has arrived and we are excited to start collecting!
Swan Lake Outdoor Centre is Malaise Trap Ready!
Walking the site today we have been keeping an eye out for the best place to place our trap as we do our site walks today. We cannot wait to get students involved in helping us set up and monitor the trap. Since we will have different school groups every day of the monitoring cycle, we are still working on how best to expose them to the program. The excitement builds!
Rothesay Park School ready to go :)
Our Malaise trap arrived today, and tomorrow the students will be here and ready to start learning! We’ll start seeing what they know about living things, then arthropods, before we start catching them 🙂
Notre piège Malaise est arrivé ce matin, et demain les élèves arriveront, prêts à apprendre! Nous allons faire une mise en commun de nos connaissances sur les êtres vivants et les arthropodes, avant de commencer à les attraper 🙂
