I would contact insects limited..... I believe they may sell certain museum 
pest critters for testing needs.....I would be more apt to do that than trying 
to keep my own. JTV

Subject: Re: [pestlist] Rearing insects for tests

Greetings,

I see no ethical issues.  They are pests that eat artifacts, and thus destroy 
history.  But there might be a legal issue, depending on whether or not 
invertebrates are included as animals in animal testing laws.

Thank you,

Michael R.<mailto:[email protected]>

I'm also not familiar with what the ethical aspects of rearing these insects to 
kill them for research purposes might be. I've never done anything like this 
before, so any pointers on any aspect of this endeavour will be much 
appreciated.
