*Does anyone know of a good publication(s) that describes butterfly and
*insect preparation using non-toxic methods?  The current preparation method
*involves relaxing specimens in a chamber with chlorocresol.  The specimens
*that are in need of preparation are approximately 10 years old and were
*dried in wax envelopes.
 
*Thank you.
