For those who may not have heard, Bioquip,  the long time supplier of all products entomological has decided that 75 years is long enough and they are closing their doors as of March 11, 2022. They have apparently been trying to find a buyer for the business for the last year without success I guess. Pretty depressing news for me since my kids and for that matter myself pretty much grew up in that place. I have always considered them a part of the family.

Really sad to see them want to shut operations down after being such an influential supplier and friendly face for so long.  

 

I just talked to Brent and he confirmed everything.

 

I also just realized that once they go under, it's going to really mess up the availability of entomological supplies in North America.  I really hope they get a last minute buyer or figure something out.

Sad news. Things are breaking down in this country too fast for my, or anyone’s liking.

That really sucks. Everything's gone to crap.

I wonder what’s gonna happen to the stock they currently have. I’d hate to see it go to waste.

Sold off as much as possible, I placed my final order last night.Hopefully anything not sold will be donated to the appropriate places.
