World Alive

Introducing the Laboratory Stick insect! Stick Insects belong to the Phasmatodea family and camouflage themselves pretending to be inanimate objects, like sticks!

As a part of their survival strategy and to fool their potential predators, they can mimic their habitat by stretching their legs out so their predators confuse them with real sticks!!

Watch and learn all about these fun and original insects ordering your World Alive Stick Insects Kit. This kit contains a net habitat, padded tip tweezers, magnifying glass, pipette, fun activity book, and instructions about how to take care of your stick insects. (Instructions in Spanish, French, English, German and Portuguese).

Suitable for kids aged 5+ interested in the stick insect life cycle.

Remember: respect all living beings. Please follow the instructions carefully, to help these new beings come safely into the world so you can feel proud for having grown them into healthy adult insects.

LIVE INSECTS ORDERS

Live insects are posted Mondays only (by mail), to avoid them spending the weekend in the post. Orders can take up to 21 days to be received. If you have not received your order within 21 days, contact us by e-mail through the contact area link on this website.

If the package does not fit in your mail box, you will receive a note to collect it at the post-office. In that case you should collect it as soon as possible because your insects can not live in the package indefinitely.

J'ai commandé cet article avec des oeufs de phasmes .J'en suis très contente.Sur les 10, 7 ont éclos.Je leur mets des branches de lierre dans un vase à goulot étroit, bouché par un bout de sopalin (pour eviter la noyade..).Ils devorent les feuilles et se portent à merveille. Excellent article !!!

I have purchased this kit and it is a brillant piece of kit, my stick insects are still alive over 1 year on, and they have produced off spring, thank you.

I'm six years old and I got your stick insect and butterfly kits for my birthday. Other than needing an adult to cut the privet for my stick insects, I am able to look after them completely on my own. It's teaching me about minibeasts and about respecting nature. I've asked for more kits so I can look at other insects too! Thank you for helping me learn about these animals, mummy and I would never have known how cool they are without you!

I have grown 4 adult stick insects and they are the best pets for children ever; they are fascinating, dont make much mess and are quite hardy too. I would highly recommend them as long as you have easy access to privet. Mine have just laid 89 eggs !!
