Homemade or purchased wooden exhibit boxes may be used instead. They must be approximately 18" x 24" and not more than 3 1/2" thick with Plexiglas or glass covers and cellotex pinning bottoms (or plastazote or polyethylene pinning bottoms available from entomology supply stores such as Bioquip.com). Boxes must be easily opened (for instance; if a screw is used to secure Plexiglas tops, use a thumbscrew fastener instead of a fastener that requires a tool). b. Specimens are to be arranged so the box can be exhibited horizontally. 4-H'ers may attach wires to the back of wooden boxes to help make them easier to display. c. Identification labels available from your County Extension Office must be used, or custom labels may be printed if they conform exactly to the font, font size, and font color of the official labels. Labels should be printed onto white cardstock. The exhibit identification card should be placed on the front of the box (each box). Instructions for pinning and labeling are included in your project literature. d.

For the first through fifth year projects, a display collection catalog must be in an envelope attached to the back of the display box. Envelopes should be attached to permit their being opened easily to remove catalogue from them without moving the exhibit. f. Most specimens in the display cases should be pinned, and the use of vials is discouraged. If vials are used, they may account for no more than 2% of a collection. Vials must be securely wired or pinned to the pinning bottoms. g. The inclusion of non-insect specimens (spiders, e.g.) is encouraged, but because this is primarily an insect collection, and because non-insects do not preserve well on insect pins, points will be deducted if there are more than one specimen from each non-insect class. 3. Entomology exhibits are judged on the following categories: Orders, Species, Common Names, Labels, Condition of Specimens, Overall Appearance, Life Cycle Representation, Catalog of Specimens. Check with county 4-H Agent for point distribution on score sheet. 4. Exhibits will be penalized if they do not: a. Use insect pins for pinning insects. b. Use the 4-H Entomology identification labels. c. Use display boxes that are not the official 9 x 13 cardboard boxes acquired through the Dept. of Entomology, or wooden boxes that are approximately 18" x 24" x 3 1/2". d. Fulfill the requirements of the particular exhibit under which it is entered. e. Have the insects arranged so the box can be exhibited horizontally. 5. Have the display collection catalogue in an envelope attached to the back of the display box through fifth year projects. 6.
