Fun Facts: Entomology

The scientific study of insects

In the beginning, the primary role of an entomologist was to develop and introduce modifications in the environment to minimize the spread of disease and damage caused by insects. Today, Entomologists can work out in the field, in laboratories, classrooms, museums or even pest management!
