Frequently Asked Questions
Are the insects real?
Yes, all insects are real specimens sourced from controlled and responsible collections.
How are taxidermy insects prepared?
Taxidermy insects are carefully hand-prepared by our experienced preparators.
Each insect is first dried, after which legs, wings, and antennae are positioned correctly.
These entomological techniques ensure the insect retains its natural shape and color. During preparation, the insect is preserved to remain beautiful for many years.
How long do taxidermy insects last?
Taxidermy insects can last for many years, often decades, when properly cared for.
It is important they are professionally prepared and displayed in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.
With proper care, a taxidermy insect remains as beautiful as the day it was purchased, allowing you to build a lasting insect collection in top condition.
How should I maintain or clean taxidermy insects?
Taxidermy insects require little maintenance. Keep them in a dry place away from direct sunlight to avoid fading.
Insects displayed in frames, domes, or resin are extra well-protected and ideal for long-term presentation.
Are taxidermy insects legal to buy and own?
Yes, taxidermy insects are completely legal to buy and own.
We only work with suppliers and breeders who produce and export according to international regulations, such as CITES.
All insects naturally died and are ethically sourced, so you can safely purchase a taxidermy insect and add it to your collection.
Where do taxidermy insects come from?
Our insects come from controlled and responsible breeders in regions such as South America, Africa, and Asia.
In these facilities, insects complete their full natural life cycle: they are born, live, and die naturally. Only after they have naturally passed away are they carefully prepared.
This method contributes to nature conservation, biodiversity, and supports local communities dependent on sustainable insect breeding.
Are taxidermy insects suitable as a gift?
Yes, a taxidermy beetle, spider, or scorpion makes a unique and original gift for nature lovers. Their distinctive appearance and natural beauty also make them ideal as decoration or a collector’s item.
