To get your caterpillars, you will need to fill out the sertivicate and mail it to Insect Lore. When they receive it, they will ship to you a small box that contains five live caterpillars in a sterile environment, complete with their required food and air holes for breathing.

The (latest) design habitat from insect lore is a cylindrical, netted environment exquisitely constructed. It comes folded in the box and when removed, it springs open (from the coil construction, like a slinky) and pops up into a netted cage. There is a clear vinyl top and a floral patterned vinyl bottom and it is fully encircled with a sturdy netting. There is also a handle on the top for easy transporting. At the top of this environment you can find a zip, that you can open to release the butterflies when they are ready.
