How to mount specimens for educational use.

Here is a USDA website and pdf version of a lab manual:

"Collecting and Preserving Insects and Mites: Tools and Techniques" an updated and modified version of the USDA Misc. Publication no. 1443 published by the Agricultural Research service in 1986 and Edited by George C. Steyskal, William L. Murphy, and Edna M. Hoover.

Everything you ever wanted to know about how to kill and preserve those tiny macroinvertebrates.
