Campus favorites, in-person and online
The Bohart Museum of Entomology gift shop offers a variety of bug-related gifts, including T-shirts, hoodies, jewelry, books, posters, pens and pins, stuffed toy animals (such as bed bugs and ticks), novelty candy and collecting equipment.
Some of the museum’s popular shirts depict monarchs, dragonflies and tardigrades (water bears). One hoodie, lettered with “Bohart Republic,” features an insect-netting entomologist riding a tardigrade. One T-shirt featuring a spider asks, “Got legs?” Bohart clothing sizes run from toddlers to adults.
