FAQ's

Are live insects available all year round?
Most insects are available all year round but some insects such as the caterpillars for the Creature and Chrysalis kits are not available in colder months due to their natural life cycles. If you would like to order a specific insect please check the availability with our customer service staff before placing an order

How is the live insect delivered?
Once you place your order your insect will be sent to you though Australia Post or another couriers overnight delivery service.

Is it safe to send insects in this way? 
It is perfectly OK to send the insects to you. Before the insect is packed off and sent to you, it is given enough food and water to survive 2-3 days in the post. Most packages are delivered the next day so this gives them more than enough food to make the overnight trip. All insects are sent out late in the afternoon and will not be sent if the weather forecast is for extremely hot weather.

How long will it take for my order to be delivered? 
It can take from 2-14 days for your insect to be delivered. Our customer service staff will advise you of an approximate delivery date when you place your order. 

It can take up to 30 days for delivery depending on the weather and availability of live insects.
