    Good. You covered the wing curling.

    You mentioned severing the tendons, what do you mean by that? Great video!

      There are small tendons that attach the wings to the muscular system of the thorax. If you sever those tendons it loosens the wings considerably

      Could you sever the tendons with a pin? I don’t have an exacto knife

    Would you mind to share all the tools you have and where to buy them. I’m fascinated to start doing this. I already have a few butterflies.

      Good idea. I’ll make a video discussing that

    Where is a good place to put your specimens so pests can't get to them?

      Good question. It depends how many you are keeping. Find boxes that are as air tight as possible. I’d suggest looking into insect boxes like Cornell drawers. They are expensive but worth it
