How are butterflies shipped?
Locally, we deliver your butterflies ready for release or display directly to your event location. Nationwide….Butterflies are shipped in release boxes to be released all at once or individually by whomever you designate! When butterflies arrive, All you need to do is keep them in a dark, cool place (air-conditioned room or cool basement). This keeps them less active until you are ready for them to perform! An hour before the release, put them somewhere warmer (above 70 degrees, 75 to 80 degrees works best but not any warmer). At this time they are anxiously awaiting the big moment of release! Do not leave the packaged butterflies sitting in temperatures above 85 degrees for long periods of time. If outside temperatures are above 85 degrees keep the package somewhere that is not so hot until the time of release gets closer (within 1/2 hour of release time should be ok).
