When I had traps and kept what I wanted there was always a question of what to do with the other dead bugs.
I gave them to a friend who kept tropical birds. loved em !!! Eventually I started to freeze them and gave them to the zoo.
just a thought.

I use them as fertilizer in my house plants.

I stick pins (Field Pinning) in all dead/unwanted Lepidoptera, even some ugly beetles. Lately I have been field pinning Diptera (Flies). When I checked the Bait Trap in my yard yesterday, I found a dull, but very Blue Fly (Diptera) in my trap. I put a data label on each specimen I collect and place them in temporary storage box.
I have several friends who unfortunately are Coleopterist and are the beneficiaries of my traps.I have always had a habit of finding a home for the things I kill in my traps.
