About the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to InsectsAbout the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Insects

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Insects is a society for the promotion of insect health and welfare primarily in the United Kingdom but also throughout the world. Insects are some of the most valuable and yet most persecuted members of our society, and yet precious little is being done to protect them.
