Abstract/Contents: | "Three materials, wax, liquid latex and fiberglass resin, were used to cast tunnel structures of mole crickets. The fiberglass resin was the best material for the casting, resulting in quick-setting, durable casts. Melted wax casts were both fragile and sensitive to heat, whereas the liquid latex penetrated the soil surrounding the tunnel and was thus unsuitable for this purpose." |
