Entomology Enthusiast
Your Creepy Crawler Curator Since 2024
I am your Creepy Crawler Curator, Ana, also known as Miss Bugs, Hudon. Fascinated by insects since childhood, especially by unique morphs of common pests, I studied entomology for part of my undergraduate career. I loved it! Along the way, I met many amazing people, which led me to work with and teach kids, including at-risk youth. I’ve formally studied many subjects, from entomology to early childhood development, juvenile delinquency, and public health, even addiction treatment services. I couldn’t leave any of my interests beid and as such I hatched Arthropod Adventure. I made all my passions a reality.
The goal of Arthropod Adventure is to expose people to a new perspective in regards to insects. To validate a person’s fears, by teaching. I bring exotic insect exhibits, not only schools, but also to low income groups, or programs.. I also provide services for parties.
Many times, people are taught to believe insects are pests; spiders must be feared; bugs need stomped. Most are surprised to learn that not all bugs are bad; not all roaches are pests. There is more than one type of rollie pollie!
Mission:
To get more people interested in entomology.
Purpose:
To educate children about arthropods, what they are, and why they are important in Ohio and the world in general; and to encourage children and young adults to responsibly pursue and study entomology. With the special interest, to teach that “pest” insects such as cockroaches, mosquitos, termites, and arachnids, also live in the wild and are just as important to study.
