How to Relax & Spread the Wings (Important Guide)

These specimens are shipped dried to ensure safe delivery. Before spreading, they must be softened properly.

Step 1: Relaxing (Softening the Specimen)

• Place the specimen in a sealed container
• Use alcohol steam (ethanol) or a humidity chamber
• Leave for 12–24 hours until the body and wings become flexible

Step 2: Spreading the Wings

• Carefully position the moth on a spreading board
• Use entomology pins to fix the body and wings
• Adjust wings symmetrically for best display
• Let dry naturally for 3–5 days until fully set

Storage Instructions (Very Important)

• If you are not ready to pin immediately, store the specimens in a freezer
• This prevents mold, insects, and damage
• Keep in a sealed bag or container before freezing

Notes

• Each specimen is natural → slight variations in color/size are normal
• Wings/tails may have minor imperfections due to nature
• Handle with care (very delicate)
