Notes for our customers in the USA

We welcome orders from the USA and will be pleased to supply live butterfly and moth pupae to exhibitions throughout the country.

Our catalogue is presented here priced in US $ and payments can be made in US $ to our US dollar account or by cheque in US $. There is a minimum order of US$150 for pupae in any combination and the Stratford Butterfly Farm Ltd reserves the right to change any or all stated prices as a result of currency fluctuations. Please see the Order Forms page for ordering details.

We are pleased to offer you the following service;

A mixed selection of pupae charged at the special mixed selection rate taken from species permitted for export on your PPQ is now available. The range of species available will be dependent on the selection of species listed on your permit. If your PPQ only lists a small range of high value pupae we could not supply at the mixed rate charge. If you would like to discuss this further please email us for details;

As an additional special service, we are able to offer sexed pupae of all the butterflies and moths available on our lists. We are aware that some areas/states permit male only imports and this is available on request.

All pupae shipped to the USA are transported using DHL. This guarantees a rapid and safe journey for the pupae and it enables the package to be tracked by all parties using the internet tracking service. The cost for all typical DHL shipments is $35.00.

In order to offer this service, there are a number of important requirements for which you are responsible;

Live butterfly pupae entering the USA must be accompanied by a permit issued by the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture). The licence is called a PPQ and information on obtaining this permit is available from the Plant Protection and Quarantine Homepage by visiting www.aphis.usda.gov/ppq/. It is your responsibility to obtain this licence and to send us a copy via fax or post.
