• Did you know there are more kinds of beetles in Michigan than there are varieties of birds on Earth?
• Did you know that a cricket’s ears are on its knees and flies have taste buds on their feet?
• How about that an ant can lift 50 times its own weight, the equivalent of a human lifting two small cars?

A visit to the Bug House will explain all these fascinating facts and more. In addition to viewing the amazing pinned displays, you’ll have the opportunity to get up-close and personal with a whole room of creepy crawlers. They are the true stars of the Bug House.
