Friends go to Rwanda far from insects

I want to interest my friends financially. Therefore, I expect a lively discussion . Who would like to have insects from RWANDA ?

Sorry, but it seems to me that the question is again posed incorrectly. What does it mean to be interested financially? As your first post suggests, your friends are far from insects. Therefore, it is even further from the methods of collecting them and, even more so, from the methods of preserving the collected material. And the cost of the material depends on its quality directly. What, in Rwanda, insects will fly at them in flocks - just fight them off? I don't think so. Experience shows that people who are far from insects are not enough, that they do not know them and take anything for insects (spiders, millipedes, and woodlice), but they simply do not notice them in nature. It is unlikely that they will be able to collect something in a significant amount, and, moreover, keep it in decent quality. Therefore, the question of their material interest is not relevant. It is better to let them bring at least something personally to you as a gift (by acquaintance

). And you can show us these gifts later.

In principle, I really want to ask people to bring insects from interesting places. But the problem is not relevant or clear to them. That's why the author came up with this idea. I myself gave my students and colleagues a mattress and stain for practice, but I didn't get anything. So there was even a time when manuscripts made where to collect insects and methods of preserving them. So somehow I didn't get to give it to someone. Material interest significantly increases the chances of increasing the volume of gift products from a country "where I have never been". Yes, that's the problem that arises, the fact that Dmitrich clearly and sofrmuliroval. And if we offer, say, $ 0.2- $ 0.5 per unit and your friends bring 300 flies plus a couple of thousand ants for a sweet substrate. How can you explain to them later that this is not what you expected? The work is done, the terms of the contract are drawn up. So there will be a violation of communication with your friends, with all the ensuing consequences. Although to be honest, I am also tempted, Egyptians, Vietnamese, Chinese, Cameroonians, Hindus, etc., etc. study at the LTA.. Sometimes I look at them and think about how to meet them and ask for a visit, but I'm just not a very sociable person, I'm better at monologues.

Tom, when you arrive at the place, look around, ask the local whites about security for the presence of aggressive tribes and how far you can get away from home. Also for the presence of venomous spiders centipedes scorpions and ticks. Read the forum topics: fishing abroad, fishing in the tropics. And then go to the area and decide where the vegetable gardens end and the wasteland begins, or a steppe with a desert or some kind of forest. There must be a stain. this is a half-liter can of better plastic with a wide throat and a twist-up lid filled with sawdust or scraps of paper or cotton wool soaked in chloroform or nail polish remover. you can also drop gasoline, but you can't overdo it so that these liquids are in the form of vapors . For large beetles, have a syringe filled with ammonia-ammonia to immobilize a large beetle, inject it into the chest from the bottom of the body in the area of the front paws. The beetle needs very little ammonia , its nerve centers are paralyzed immediately.
