Re: My recent posting about suppliers of benefical insects.

L* B*

Mario S. Moratorio advises me to be aware that the list is of '97 vintage
and that the industry is rather volatile.  Many of the businesses listed may
be out-of-business by now.

So use this list with a grain of salt. I do know of 2 very good suppliers
that are still in business. They are both caandian but ship to the US. Can
anyone else add to this list?
