I’m pretty sure a survey of insect populations was caried out using road kill grills in Britain in the last 5-10 years.

We here at What’s That Bug? also support the idea of collections formed from found dead specimens. Though we are not opposed to collecting insects for scientific or research purposes, we have major issues with “decorative” collections that are available on the market for profit.

I recently heard from a student who was morally opposed to killing insects for her entomology class. The professor and the dean and the student worked out a compromise–she would build her collection only from already dead insects. She said she eventually needed to resort to car grills in parking lots to complete her collection!
