Let us come and bug you!

Step into the Living World of Minibeasts! We’ve now been visiting venues for over 23 years and deliver fun, safe, educational, hands-on, interactive workshops, focused on a variety of topics encompassing the importance of ‘mini-beasts’ and their roles in our Living World; their life cycles within food webs, ecosystems, agriculture, forestry and medicine.

All incursions are aligned with the NSW NESA Science & Technology Syllabus and NSW Sustainable Schools Program! 

We also offer special activities for :
– The National Bug Hunt
– The B&B Bioblitz
– Insect Week (June 21st – 27th June 2027)
– National Science Week

Questions on ‘mini-beasts’ & everything entomological will be answered and all workshops come with an exciting HANDS-ON experience not to be forgotten!

BugZoom Sessions are also available for any kind of organisation or institution around Australia and the world, including individuals and families!

At every hands-on workshop, we exhibit a wide variety of harmless live minibeasts including various species of Australian stick insects, cockroaches, praying mantis, grasshoppers, beetles, millipedes, snails and more, allowing supervised handling of harmless mini-beasts and over 200 preserved biofacts, including embedded and dried insects, snail shells, eggs, egg cases, exoskeletons, wings, cocoons etc.

If you have a particular mini-beast topic or activity that you would like us to fit into, we will design a workshop format specifically to meet your needs. Our minibeasts are a great addition to school Science, Environmental and Agricultural Festivals.

Use the drop down menus above to find your particular details for your venue or event! We visit schools (K-12), Colleges, Universities, Preschools, Child Care Centres, OOSH/OSHC Centres, Special Needs, Homeschools, Libraries, and even offer personal home visits.
