EntSoc Bug One is a real cockroach encased in a plastic key ring fob. He was purchased at the Entomological Society meeting in Fort Lauderdale,November 2002. He had a twin ENTSOC BUG 2, whose travels began a few days later but he went missing several years ago. EntSoc Bug one is the first travel bug I released and he's one of the most successful.

My kids and I came from Columbia, SC and took my brother, who lives in New Port Richie, along with his 2 young children, on a day of Geo Caching. What fun did we all have. Not only did I find this travel bug, but we saw many beautiful parks. The Travel Bug is in our hands and is in Columbia,SC. This will be place in a Geocache very soon.
Thanks foe the great time while in Florida
