Located on the Kansas State University campus in a converted dairy barn, the 1,100-square-foot Kansas State Insect Zoo showcases thousands of live, preserved, and fossil insects. Some of the exhibits are hands-on, such as microscopes that visitors can use to look at the preserved insects. There is also a creative kitchen where drawers and cupboards contain examples of various bugs along with detailed information about them. Kansas State Insect Zoo is open Tuesday-Saturday from 1pm to 6pm. Guided tours are available by appointment outside of those public hours.
