How to purchase insects
Click here to download a complete pricing sheet.

  • All of our insect species are pests. Therefore we only sell them to companies, academic institutions, and government agencies having personnel trained and equipped to handle them. Sorry,  we do not sell to individuals
  • Eggs are provided in lots of 1000. Substantial discounts are given for higher volumes as well as for multiple shipments and standing orders. Our minimum order for eggs is only $40 ($28 for Aedes).  For other stages, the minimum order is $50. We ship more than the requested number of insects to account for loss of viability in shipment. 
  • Most orders for Lepidoptera or Aedes eggs received before 1 pm EST can be shipped same day.  Other species or stages may require some lead time. Approximate lead times are provided in the pricing sheet. We can ship Lepidoptera larvae of any instar on artificial diet. Call us with your special needs.
  • Most insects are shipped on ice in insulated cartons via FedEx Priority overnight. There is a flat $5.00 packing charge per order for insulated shipments. We charge no more for shipping than Fedex charges us. We can use your Fedex account number if you wish.
  • Master Card and Visa, as well as company or institutional purchase orders are accepted.
  • BENZON RESEARCH NO LONGER SHIPS INSECTS OUT OF THE USA. Required inspections by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, along with frequent delays obtaining customs clearances have made overseas shipments of live insects impractical.
