Do Insects Bug You? Think Again!

from On The Record · host WYPR 88.1 FM Baltimore

Wait! Don't squash that spider crawling inside your kitchen sink! Studying the creepy crawlers can lead to important findings about our environment. Two entomologists weigh in: Prof James Young, from the Natural History Society of Maryland, discusses the value of insect collections and Fred Paraskevoudakis praises their worth as ecological harbingers. Plus, filmmaker Allison Otto talks about her documentary “The Love Bugs” ... a moving portrayal about the ‘love of nature’ and the ‘nature of love.’Do you have a question or comment about a show or a story idea to pitch?
