Geocache Description:


This is the fourth in a series of Phobia caches by Totes Krakra. 

Entomophobia

en*tuh*muh*fow*bee*uh

1   The irrational fear of insects

Time to face your fears. Geocachers are notorious for sticking their hands into dark holes, climbing through places where creepy crawlies might live.   On occasion they might run into critters that scare the living daylights out of them.  This is one of several caches in a series that identify some of the phobias that Geocachers might be afflicted with as thy stick, climb and poke their way around in search of that elusive smiley.  Psychologists say one of the best ways to overcome a phobia is to face it.

The cache container holds part of the coordinates for a bonus cache "Phobia cache series bonus". The numbers for the bonus cache are written on the the lid and the top of the log.   This cache is well camoflaged
