Reviews
"Visited Insectropolis a few months back and it exactly as you might imagine. It's an insect museum. I was actually pretty surprised and the level of detail the exhibits have. My kids had a great time learning about insects and even getting to experience and touch some live insects. Just wish we would've visited when the bee exhibit was being held. We'll likely be back to see it. Great experience."
"This place is perfect for spending a couple of hours with children. It has ample parking space and the entrance fee is highly affordable. To know their summer hours, you can either visit their website or make a phone call. The place is impeccably clean and well-organized. While most of the insects are exhibited with detailed information, there are also engaging interactive displays. Majority of the bugs are not alive, but you can observe some live ones. My family had a great time visiting, and seeing our grandkids enjoying themselves made it all worth it. Additionally, there is a presentation which was enthusiastically delivered by a knowledgeable lady. She brought three insects for everyone to see up close and even touch if desired. It was highly educational. The place also offers handicap access. The restrooms are also very clean. You can stop by their small gift shop with cool stuff on your way out. The staff members are friendly and provide excellent customer service."
"Awesome place to bring young kids expect about a two hour experience. Most of the insects that they have are on display accompanied by lots of information. They do have some live insects that you can see. As well as great interactive displays. During my visit with they did have someone bringing live bugs out for everyone to see up close and personal as well as touch. It was very informative and the gentleman who is hosting was knowledgeable. There is a gift shop and restrooms as well and handicap access."
"Very informative, clean, and a great job using space efficiently. They had a live presentation and many interactive exhibits. Great for kids of all ages and many opportunities to learn new things. Would recommend to anyone who has some free time and wants to learn some new things."
"Highly recommend! The museum was clean, new looking, fun, and very affordable. The place is small but packed with so much. My family loves bugs and animals so this was a perfect place to visit. If you happen to be in the area like us, definitely stop by. The interactive show, was everything it needed to be. We learned, he gave us the option to touch the 4 or 5 insects he talked about, and he made it funny and easy to understand for a crowd of kids and adults. The museum itself was so informative, and I loved how intentional everything that was placed in the museum was insect related, down to the lady bug stools. The store was affordable and cool. I highly recommend the museum and I would definitely come back."
