Keeping Great Diving Beetles

[Zach Bruder]

Right now is actually a better time to catch them than summer is. Minnow traps work well in areas you know for sure they are at. If there is enough interest I can catch some for people. The larva of these guys are absolutely amazing, but those you are more likely to catch in August.

Here is a cool larval feeding video.

Hello Travas K. Would you be able to catch me 4 giant diving beetles? You can let me know on arachnoboards, or you can email me at zachbruder@gmail.com.
