Our favourite delivery!
Every month the whole house looks forward to the mini beast delivery!
High quality specimens in high quality frames. The care and attention to detail is second to none and seeing the look on my daughter’s face when a new bug arrives is fantastic! Looking forward to continuing my collection for a long time.
Absolutely amazing specimens.
The quality of this product is just off the scale. It is so good. Beautiful specimens. Really well mounted and preserved. Very impressive. And the communication from the company is also really good.
Mold on insects
I bought a specimen as a gift. Shipping took longer than estimated. Two weeks after we had it I noticed mold growing on all three insects. The item had not been exposed to any moisture and was hanging on a wall inside. If it cannot be hung up inside without getting moody then it is not fit for purpose.
I contacted the website and they said that they spray them and that this was not their fault - which it clearly was. They did not offer me a replacement or a refund. Instead they offered me ways to fix it by taking the whole item apart, buying special cleaning products and cleaning it myself. It’s as if I bought a faulty jacket and the shop owner said “sorry it’s got a hole in it, if you buy a sewing machine you can fix the hole yourself”.
I was very disappointed as I had spent a substantial amount on this gift. I felt bad that my gift had gone moldy after two weeks.
Would not recommend. Faulty item and terrible customer service.

Best subscription ever!
I am part of the Minibeast subscription club. Each month they handpick a surprise specimen to add to my collection. Every single insect is unique and beautifully framed.
The customer service is second to none. Whenever I have had a problem with one of the frames being lost or damaged in the post, they have sent me a new one immediately. The team are an absolute delight to deal with and nothing is too much trouble.
Getting a new frame is the absolute highlight of my month and it is hands down the best subscription I have ever signed up for.
Absolutely love my mini beast
Absolutely love my mini beast subscription! I get so excited for what suprise I will get ☺️
Minibeast is an amazing company!
Minibeast is an amazing company!
I love how beautiful their frames and specimens are, and the Minibeast club is the best idea ever!
This was the second time I have bought…
This was the second time I have bought from mini beasts and never had any problems with them, they let you know when your parcel has been shipped and when it's due to be delivered, the items are always well packaged, so they don't get broken or damaged. Will definitely buy from them again.
Best mini beast…
I have just joined the mini beast club.. love my first mini beast. So well presented.. can't wait for my next one!!
Also just bought my nephew a dinosaur tooth.. Absolutely brilliant!!
Supreme Specimens
I’ve received I think 5 specimens from this company and I am impressed each time. Customer service is quick, specimens are of high quality, and each order is packaged with extreme care. I intend to continue buying from them.
Beautiful specimen
Beautiful specimen. Everytime I’ve bought something from this site I’ve gotten beautiful products. Would recommend!
I've been buying bugs from mini beast…
I've been buying bugs from mini beast for a few years now. I haven't found a better quality provider of entomology frames.
Fantastic Service
I've purchased from Minibeasts quite a few times, and every time has been a pleasant one.
The frames are always displayed with perfection and shipped out within a reasonable time. The website informs you how long it can take for the production time so you're not left wondering why it takes a little longer than you'd expect.
I will continue to purchase from Minibeasts and hope to achieve my wall full of their entomology frames!
Have bought many beautiful butterflies…
Have bought many beautiful butterflies and never been disappointed. Support staff go above and beyond to help with any problems. Highly recommend with store ^_^
Beautiful specimens every time
Beautiful specimens every time, I love minibeast. Talking point for everyone that comes to my house now.
Always the best quality
Always the best quality, I am subscribed to the monthly boxes and love it!
Great service and great specimens
I love the specimens I get from Minibeast. I was buying them individually but recently signed up to their subscription service which makes it more of a surprise each month now. Slowly filling a wall of amazing moths and butterflies mixed in with family pics.
Addicted to Minibeasts
Discovering minibeasts has devastated my bank account. I'm not the type of person to spend a lot of money but minibeasts is my Achilles heel.
The specimens are always gorgeous and breathtaking; I'm filled with a deep sense of awe each time I look at them. They are mounted in beautiful robust frames that only adds to the quality of each item.
The company's customer service is always helpful and responsive. And whilst I will lament regardless, the creatures are fairly priced given the quality and ethics of the company. I absolutely love minibeasts and would definitely recommend them.
Beautiful Products!
Beautiful beasts
I bought two a couple of months ago and just bought another two as they are so beautiful. I got money discounted off my second purchase which was amazing! I am addicted now and will be buying more.
