I got my first pinning products the other day, and i’m looking forward to learning the process. But some of the stuff is a bit unclear, so let me set up a hypothetical. Let’s say i have a butterfly. I put it in the prepared kill jar, and once it’s dead i take it out and pin it. Once it’s pinned and put up in a frame, how can i keep it from decomposing? Does the ethyl acetate + air tight frames/boxing help? Most of what i’m reading is just “kill, pin, frame” and i’d like some clarity. Thank you!
